All good with the sound this morning Maverick, removal of the optical and DAC device may have just cured the problem. I will have to persevere for late night TV viewing by re connecting, as we need the wireless and 2 headphones. Thanks to everbody for their input. Appreciated.
Ah right, Gotta be the telly box settings surely. Have you tried with the CEC turned off on all gadgetsNo the sound is fully through the TV speakers and the power cable is for the tv's dedicated box. The qled Sammys use an external box for all throughputs. We can also get te sound restored by taking the firestick out of the tv's box and then putting back in again.
Checked all connections as below but look good to go and have removed wi fi headset speakers completly to see if had any effect on the muted sound. Sound is only muted when reverting back from firestick to Sky. Thanks for having a look anyway it's appreciated.
Mine did similar it’s a lot of messing about in the audio settings to keep switching as the tv gets confused what to output to. HDMI is used nowadays for both sound and vision whereas the old optical was just for sound so it should be one or the other as the tv doesn’t know which to switch to it tends to revert optical for sone reason
What is the model number of your tv? I know you said samsung Qled 95 but there are different models.
My bad ..the DAC and optical is still connected. However the sound muting has not replicated itself this morning so maybe the sound settings or reversing the hdmi lead for handshake or a simple re connection the leads.
Bob neglected to mention his optical connection or the other little box he has.
Apologies Stoner and it only came to light when Maverick enquired as to the optical cable that fed to the DAC.
Excellent
