I have a Sharp Roku TV I've owned for several years. I have it connected to a sound bar via optical cable and don't have any audio issues when streaming or gaming. The issue I'm having is with my record player.

I have my record player connected to the AV in on the TV to use the sound bar, as the sound bar only has the optical input. I never had issues with this until recently. In the last couple months, I no longer get sound through the AV source on the TV. I can plug headphones into the record player via the AV cables and get sound that way. Tried replacing the cables, in case it was a bad cable. Still not having any luck.

Is there a setting I'm missing in the Roku TV itself to allow audio from the AV source, even though there's no visual component?

Hi Carly!

To answer your questions:

• Yes, I've used this set up for about 4 years without an issue until recently.
• The soundbar is a LG SL4Y.
• The TCL Roku TV tied to my account is in another house, so I have not tried this setup with that TV.

Thanks!
