Streambar SE with non-Roku TV, non ARC. No sound with antenna channels.

Hooked up as instructed, using HDMI cable and optical cable.  Streambar works perfectly when watching Roku.  However, when switching to the TV input (to use the antenna), there is no sound out of the Streambar, even when it's selected for the audio output.  Have to use TV speakers when watching antenna channels.  Am I missing something?

Re: Streambar SE with non-Roku TV, non ARC. No sound with antenna channels.

Hey @thburns04,

Thanks for reaching out! 

We'd like to understand your concern better. Could you please provide the brand/model of your TV? 

In the meantime, please make sure the TV’s audio output is set to optical/digital and not “TV speakers.” Also, go to your TV’s audio settings and make sure it’s set to output audio to optical. Additionally, enable CEC (sometimes called Anynet+, Bravia Sync, etc.), which allows the TV to communicate properly with external devices like the Streambar.

Please keep us posted.
