Re: [OS 12.0] seems to have broken eARC soundbar setup

Same Issue for me... Real Buzzkill, kills my sound setup!

here are the details, I would like a downgrade to 11.5 like the other user received, if possible. This makes my device UNUSABLE and is unacceptable. 

Model Roku TCL: 50S435
Hardware ID: C149X
Device ID: S077209PT0M3

Serial #: X000000PT0M3 
OS Version: 12.0.0 / build 4182-93

Issue Tracker ID: M3-210-029

GC version: 9.2.113

Also my soundbar is an LG SJ4Y, I tested it on an older roku tv and it still worked (no 12.0.0 update!)

Thank You. And please downgrade my TV to 11.5 or whatever version works.

An update here: Unfortunately downgrading the software did not help. Ultimately fixing this required replacing the logic board (thankfully TCL support came out to do this, free of charge - kudos to them).

My sound at has also stopped working.  I had the same specs as the original poster.  65” tcl tv and Visio soundbar.  Do I need to contact roku or tcl?

Re: [OS 12.0] seems to have broken eARC soundbar setup

Hello,

I am experiencing a similar issue with my TCL Roku TV and Vizio soundbar.

The soundbar still plays sound, but it is a stereo signal and eARC functionality is broken (soundbar volume control and powering on/off via the Roku remote).

This began suddenly, with no changes to the hardware, but right after downloading software version 12.0.0. I've factory reset the TV and soundbar. I've tested multiple HDMI cables. Issue remains the same.

If possible, I would also like to have my system rolled back to software version 11.5.

Thank you.

Model Roku TCL: 65R625
Hardware ID: A108X
Device ID: S053Y03XMC5S

Serial #: X003000XMC5S
