And if you look at the hdmi connector, you'll see that there's no pin for
audio either.

Dvi == hdmi. They are electrically identical. The video and audio are
embedded within a TMDS signal. If you did hdmi->dvi->hdmi you would get an
identical signal at the end.

The only reason you had a digital audio injector on some video cards is
because the video card couldn't do audio to start with.
Nvidia card since the GT2xxx or ION can do audio.
