HDMI send loud clipping and noise

Try a new HDMI cable, especially if you can try a component hookup as recommended above and don’t hear the problem.  HDMI cables are pretty fragile and I’ve had them fail before, especially if it gets bent too far.  Also, go as short as you can as HDMI wasn’t designed for long distances.  FWIW, and best of luck. 

Change your cables and make sure they are firmly and completely sealed. Often HDMI cables are stiff and springy enough to dislodge themselves spontaneously from the mating connector. The result most often is exactly what you describe.
