It looks like this may be one I don't have an answer for.
It appears that you have the proper connections made on the TV. The manual is sort of ambiguous since they have a single manual for 19 different models and then have things listed which only work on a few of those models.
Question - are the HDMI ports on your TV labeled "HDMI/DVI"?
Make sure you have turned the audio up considerably while you're testing and back down prior to changing inputs.
Think the first thing I'd try is to verify the cable and the port actually work: while you're watching a movie or something you know has sound, try changing the input to the 'RGB-PC' and see if you get sound there. Make sure the volume is maxed or close to maxed on the iMac. Slowly turn the volume up on the TV. Make sure you turn it back down before you change inputs again.
I found nothing that indicates there is any manual switching you need to do via the menus to change from digital to analog audio. It should just work, but it's worth prowling the menus.
Highly unlikely that the audio cable is faulty, but the next thing I'd try would be another cable - and make sure you unplug and replug the cable you have - even if it looks good.
