HELP - No Sound - Home Theater with cable box, PS3, Wii, XBOX 360

[conamor]

Hi,

I have done some cable management behind my TV and I changed the setup a bit but I have no sound from my home theater (5.1) system. The sound comes out of the TV instead.

Setup;
Toshiba HDTV Regza 42RV530U
Yamaha HTR-6130

I have
- connected my cable box (HDMI to cbl input in the AMP)
- connected the PS3 (HDMI to DVD input in the AMP)

then I have took the HDMI out to HDMI #1 in the TV

I have selected the input 1 on the TV so I get the image and selected cbl input on the amp so the image appear on the TV + sound, but sound comes out of the TV instead of the AMP (5.1 speakers)

Am I doing something wrong?

Thank you so much!

The only think I can think of is receiver configuration. The input setup for PS3 should be set for sound from HDMI. Same for cable.

The TV is probably getting the audio passed through which is fine.

Sounds as if you had it working prior to the cable management. Try turning the TV speakers to OFF in the TV menu (not just turning the volume all the way down). HDMI can do some strange things as components interact and if the receiver is sensing the TV speakers areON then it may defer the sound to it.
