What's the exact model of the receiver, and does your laptop have Bluetooth? There are about a half dozen ways to go about this, many of them cheaper than a wireless HDMI transceiver. Also, are you willing to do a little DIY effort, like setting up a Raspberry Pi?

Well, then, get a Raspberry Pi and make it an Airplay receiver.

If that seems like too much effort, then Monoprice will sell you a Bluetooth audio receiver with stereo miniplug out for $20.

Yes, it is, except the RPi doesn't have optical audio by itself. So it's HDMI off the Pi, and if you need TOSLINK or whatnot you need a compatible USB audio device or a splitter that will peel the audio off of HDMI.
