Hi Simon, I just sent another diagnostics over, the code is 2060929079.

The speaker is connected to the eARC port of my 2020 Samsung The Frame television. I have the eARC setting on the TV turned off because when it is set to Auto, i get zero sound whatsoever. 

These sound issues apply to all the content i’m trying to watch so it’s not related to a particular streaming service. 

Really need some information on what is going on here. Should i just return the speaker?

I’m having this issue too. I pretty much have to power cycle the speaker every time i want to use it with my TV (the sounds works fine when just playing music). Has anyone been able to resolve this issue?

Hi @Ben4550, thanks for the update. I appreciate you taking the time to submit the diagnostic report, Upon checking on the diagnostics report that you’ve sent, I can only see the Sonos Boost that is online, Kindly unplug for at least a minute, and replug it back in for all other Sonos products that you have so we can check if that will work.

I’m having the same issue with the arc. Keeps cutting in and out and I have taken the HDMI cable as suggested above. Never had this issue with the old playbar. Hopefully a firmware update will fix this issue. Most frustrating.

I agree, this cannot be the fix.  My cables are buried in a wall.  No way I should pay $800 for something that requires me to unplug and plug back in.   Please provide a software fix.

As someone who is also experiencing this issue, unplugging the Arc, and plugging back in has been able to fix the issue for a little while (usually about a week).  This cannot be the fix we are expected to continue to utilize for years to come.

Hi @Ugotsurbed, thanks for the update. I appreciate you taking the time to submit the diagnostic report. Upon checking on the diagnostic report, I saw that the Arc status is on error timeout. you may try to unplug and replug the HDMI Arc cable from both ends and replug it back in, and check if there are any improvements on the sound.

Hi,  I have the same issue.  A couple of days after installing the arc is cuts out every few seconds.   The hdmi used is the one that came with the unit and my tv has earc (Samsung 90t).  The only way to fix is to pull the unit off the wall and unplug and replug the power.  This can’t be the solution and I need a fix that’s permanent.  After day or so it repeats.

Hi @D Thall, Thanks for reaching out and welcome to the community. Thanks for taking the time to submit a diagnostic report. Upon checking the diagnostic, I saw that the Arc status is disabled. You may check the HDMI Arc or E-ARC cable if it is connected to the correct port. Also, try to unplug and re-plug the HDMI ARC/ E-ARC cable on the Arc and the TV.
