When my 8 yr old Streaming Stick showed signs of age I replaced it with a brand new 4K version. Now the sound cuts in and out. Across all channels on a 1080p Panasonic Viera. No HDMI cable used. No soundbar. I see this is an ongoing problem that has not been addressed for years. What gives?

Re: 8 Yr Old Streaming Stick Had No Audio Issues But Brand New Replacement Does
The HDMI swap appears to be working. Keeping fingers crossed. Thank you.

Correction. The audio dropouts persist. Will now try a Roku Express. Maybe my 12 year old plasma set prefers a 1080p signal.

Re: 8 Yr Old Streaming Stick Had No Audio Issues But Brand New Replacement Does
The Roku Express has not produced a solution to the audio drop out problem first noticed in the 4K Streaming Stick. But I did learn that movies rented from Amazon Prime are trouble-free. So most likely this is a software conflict probably produced by an update that doesn't like old TVs.
