Call me ignorant and feel free to correct me but I thought DisplayPort didnt support audio?

DisplayPort 1.1 and above supports audio transmission.

DP supports audio just fine. It just isn't usually used for that, since it's used with monitors and not TVs.

Monitors have had audio outputs since forever, and now most displays these days are also USB hubs to boot.
