Yes but I think they also carry an analog signal

I think it's how cheap monitors with HDMI input can have speakers, since I doubt they have analog converters built in. I'd have to check though

Edit: I'm wrong, these monitors must have PCM decoders which are cheap since it's not compressed

I was thinking it was like DVI which can carry a digital video signal as well as analog, for backwards compatibility and cheap devices
