I have a Samsung Serif tv, the Sonos Beam started dropping out and the first sign of a problem was tv volume control did not work with Netflix. Now the Beam does not work with the tv at all, all volume is coming out of the TV audio. The Beam does work if streaming music, but not with the TV. I have it connected with a HDMI cable. Any suggestions?

Hi there.
Thanks for the update. Unfortunately it is still not working, I have checked the settings on my Samsung TV and ARC is active. I tried troubleshooting the HDMI cables in my TV and it does not register anything plugged into ARC. I also tried another HDMI cable and same thing. I just ran another diagnostic, 1587622569.
Could it be the ARC port in the TV is faulyy? My TV is approximately 4 months old.
Should I try an optical cable?
Thanks.
Hi
In addition to the trouble shooting you’ve done thus far I’d contact Samsung technical support they may have an answer.
Hi there.
I worked it out, I needed to reset HDMI on the tv by unplugging all cables and switching power off for 10 minuets, then setting up again. Works perfectly now.
Thanks for your help.

And does it keep working? I have to do this procedure almost every day in order to have TV-sound through my beam. I was hoping for a more permanent solution (I also have a samsung TV). Is this a known problem with samsung or also with other TV-brands?
