You need to connect the SPDIF, only ATi's 2900/3870+ cards can transmit sound over the HDMI as well.
ATI 3xxx range have a Realtek HD Audio chip so they can transmit sound. nVidia needs a (presumably) internal SPDIF connected to it.
We don't get HDMI 1.3 yet however so no Dolby TrueHD/DTS Master HD. Even if we did, we would still not get HD sound because Vista is not code complete for protected audio path.
