So got my 5.1 system yesterday with the Sonos Beam.
It appears it completely takes over the TV audio. I assumed that I would be able to choose when I wanted to use the Beam. You know for movies and things of that nature but would rather just use the TV speakers for causal listening. However it only seems to have audio with the Beam even when I use the Sony tv remote to change the setting to TV speakers it still outputs through the Beam. This means everything I watch will have the sub and surrounds on as well even though they may not be outputting anything.
Any easy way for me to configure when and when not to have the Beam active?
Don't need to watch the news in 5.1 surround sound

The Beam activates the subwoofer and surround speakers none of which I like playing at 6 in the morning.
I'm aware of the settings, being new I was hoping there was a feature or a more simple way of doing this or just having more control.
My last home theater system ran through a receiver so it was simple... turn the receiver on or off for surround sound.
Don't get me wrong I love my Sonos so far just getting acquainted.
