HDMI cables can carry audio but it is in digital format only. Any HDMI connector will be capable of carrying the audio content and any input should be capable of receiving and processing the audio in digital format. There should normally be no need to use analog audio with HDMI but there is one notable exception. HDMI shares the same video interface format as DVI, the digital display output used on computers. However, DVI does not support audio so a cable that links a DVI output to an HDMI input will not carry audio. For this reason, many new televisions have at least one HDMI input that also has an analog audio input associated with the HDMI port. This is specifically provided to cater for DVI + analog audio as delivered by many computers.

Secondly, Wii cables are designed to output analog signals, such as composite, component, or S-Video. HDMI is a digital signal, so even if the connector was the same, there would be no way the cable could transfer usable information from an HDMI port to a television on one of those interfaces.
There are no graphics to display on an Audio CD
HDMI is a connector standard designed fo rboth HD and SD video. It will carry both audio and video signals within the cable so it provides a single cable interface between equipment. It might be worth mentioning that DVI, the digital computer display interface that is gaining popularity is compatible with HDMI other than the fact that DVI does not carry audio. HDMI to DVI cables are available to connect computers to television displays. Therefore, any HDMI cable that has a DVI connector at one end or the other will not carry audio.
