No, I don't have another TV to test this through. And I have no idea what you mean by other channels. There is the Roku attached to the HDMI input and there is the TV itself is connected to the internet (it's a Fire TV). We don't use a local TV signal at all, so no "channels" to speak of.

Thanks for the update, PFNolan!
Could you please try the following workaround below?
- Press Home on your Roku remote, scroll down to Settings and select Audio > Digital output format. Instead of “Auto”, select “Custom” and choose the selection that matches the capabilities of your TV, AVR or soundbar. If the behavior continues, review more suggestions for determining why you do not hear audio.
- If you are using optical for audio, check that the input you are using on your AVR or soundbar has optical (or S/PDIF) assigned as the audio source. Refer to the manufacturer documentation to determine how to assign the audio source for an input on your AVR or soundbar.
