Hey guys, I hope this video has helped fix your Soundbar issue. If you're still having issues with HDMI ARC or eARC then check out this video as I discuss a way to use Optical and HDMI together, which could solve your issues: ruclips.net/video/TL_Bd6vqVZk/видео.html
It worked,thanks a lot. Your advice was the only one it worked. I have someting to add. My Samsung Tv's smart hub can recognize the devices that plugged in. My problems begin with that I believe. Now I cancelled that when my tv tried to recognize my devices again after this reset procedure.
Unplugged the sound bar for a minute, changed out multiple cables, went through all the settings & whatever else I could think of. Found this video and it was the TV that needed to be unplugged for a minute, I didn’t think to do that for some reason. Thank you!
It’s incredible. Been meddling for 30 minutes until this video, I unplugged the tv and speakers and restarted them, got the message that speakers now active. My god.. and I’m a software engineer lol
My Samsung soundbar unexpectedly stopped working this morning. For years I have been using a y adapter that despite being chewed by my rabbit, still worked (wrapped with electrical tape). I knew at some point I had to replace it and I was convinced today was the day. I went out to buy a new audio adapter, to my surprise, still no sound. 8 hours later, I decided to enroll in RUclips University, hoping someone taught a course on this subject. This was the first video I clicked on, and all it took was simply unplugging the cords for 10 seconds. My sounds is back on. Thank you immensely for making this video.
Hello. I am getting the sound when I connect TV's earc hdmi to hdmi in the soundbar. But when I try to connect the PS5 directly to the hdmi in of the soundbar i do get a video on the tv screen but no audio from the bar. Pls help
Hi, we have tried everything!!!!!! all of my other soundbars have worked with my DVD player but not this new one. I just purchased a new plug the only open spot left in both is the USB port. Hopeful this will work otherwise I do not know what else to do!
It was as simple as unplugging both of them for 10secs! I’ve been suffering for 2 years having to load the Bluetooth option on settings everytime I turned the tv on, finally got fed up and bought a new soundbar and the same thing was happening and followed your video and success! Thanks!
This worked for me. I had everything connected right, settings correct yet had no sound. In the end switched both off for 10 seconds and then turned back on and works perfectly fine. Phew! 😓
My soundbar and tv connected and all. But NO SOUND came out!!! For an hour exploring and testing this and that settings. Unplugging and plugging back. Nothing works. Until my last resort, turning off both tv and the soundbar for 10secs. And turning both back on. Thanks man!!! Your video is a legit help. Note : If everything seems in place and connected but no sound came out. Turn both devices off for 10 sec guys.
Been using one sound bar with an optical cable for a year. The cable randomly stopped working one day but all other sources (Bluetooth, HDMI) worked fine. I watched your video and turned on PCM mode and it worked again! Thanks a lot!
I bought a new tv, went from Samsung tv with Samsung sound bar, and now to a Sony tv with the same Samsung sound bar. I couldn’t figure out why it wasn’t working correctly, but then watched this video and put both HDMI connections to the eARC - boom problem solved. Thank you!
I'd done the unplugging/powering down tricks PLENTY, The recommendation to unplug all other HDMI cables was a new solution to me.. and it WORKED! Thanks for sharing the tricks in your bag!
First person to tell that the HDMI goes into the out port,I.ve sent 3 hours on U tube and Roku chat to no avail , You had me up and running in 2 minutes Thank you very much
We just used your video to get our sound bar to work. We had a brand new cable that was apparently bad. Changed it out and it's working fine. Thank you!
Thank you! I've been working on configuring my TLC Alto 6+ Soundbar & subwoofer to my TLC ROKU 4300 series 50" TV for over 3 hours. First of all, it did not come with a Digital Optical cable which is a much easier setup. I followed your advice and completely disconnected everything and turned all devices off. I simple powered up the TV first and then I powered up the Soundbar and then connected the HDMI cable to the HDMI ARC ports on both. Once it confirmed that my HDMI ARC Port was active I knew it was connected.
Worked! Disconnected, then reconnected. Should have remembered what my IT guy used to tell me, "did you disconnect?". He got alot of free beer from me, as you well deserve also. Thank you!
Thank you very much! My problem was no sound from my Samsung Q995B soundbar despite being connected to it both via cable from the tv and BT from the phone. I could see changes I made to sound level on screen, but no actual sound. After disconnecting and reconnecting power and hdmi cables the problem was resolved. Great video.
Wow!! First take and all the advice you provided helped!! Now I feel like an installer! Thank u! Trust me listen to this man! Awesome results and good clear instructions and fixes to try!
ultimate guide - if your soundbar has no sound after connecting to the TV with bluetooth, try this: unplug both the TV and soundbar wait for 10s Replug the tv first, after the tv runs normally, and you see the contents in the setting menu shows up, appearing the software runs fully, then replug the soundbar. that's how i fixed the problem. thanks for this video. i did not unplug any other cable connections on the tv during the process
I've had my sound bar for YEARS lol (my ex bought it for me), and I could never connect it lol. Thanks to your video, I'm in business! I can now have my fan on while watching TV. Much appreciated
This worked for me. I just disconnected everything and reconnected the sound bar alone after I turned on the TV like you said and it worked! Thank you!
Thanks. Did the "unplug tv and soundbar". That worked! Every once in a while our Bose 700 acts up and no sound comes from it even though we haven't touched any cables, etc.
Wow I've tried everything and right when I was about to buy a new one I figured I watch some RUclips videos. All it took was unplug both and plug tv first and let it boot up. Thanks so much!
Just to say thanks. Powered off sound bar and tv and unplugged from the mains left it for 30 seconds and turned back on the sound bar. Working as normal, Husband very happy and I did not take credit for what I had done but told him the video advice I took. Thanks.
I have a great sound bar, but every now and then the button in order to get the sound going konks out. Your simple steps made it come back to life again. Thank you so much bro. 👊🏾
I’m also an audio engineer and I would have never fixed this problem without this video. HDMI out would have never come to my mind as correct. Thank you!!
Wow. I found your video today. My sound would not come from my Sony Soundbar when I turned on my Samsung TV and the Sony Soundbar. I unplugged the tv and the soundbar for 10 seconds and plugged the tv in first and then the soundbar and there's sound. Thank you so much!!
Thank you so much for this! Watched it and figured out about the HDMI ARC thing, put them in the right slots and BOOM, sound bar sounds amazing. Thanks so much!
I had messed with my tv and sound bar for an hour plus. I had everything working but no audio. I swapped hdmi cables then unplugged both the tv and the sound bar. Let the tv turn on and play audio then plugged in the sound bar. Instant sound!!!!! Thanks great video!!!
You’re amazing. It worked ! I had to power off both the tv and sound bar for 10 sec and plug everything back in, thank you so much , that issue was driving me nuts
Thank you for this very good informative video. Helped me to sort out my issues with my Bose 600 soundbar and Samsung tv. I was struggling few weeks. Keep it up mate. Cheers
Super ! Ce post m’a aidé à résoudre mon problème avec ma barre de son Sony que je croyais « morte ». J’ai tout débranché; les câbles HDMI puis débranché la télévision et la barre de son. J’ai attendu 3 minutes puis j’ai rebranché d’abord ma télévision et ensuite le câble HDMI de la barre de son sur les fiches Arc de la barre de son et sur la télévision. Pour finir j’ai branché la prise secteur de la barre de son et là les 3 petites led se sont allumées puis celle de TV est resté allumé. J’ai allumé mon téléviseur et là miracle ! La barre de son fonctionne et je peux commander le son avec la télécommande de mon téléviseur Bravia Sony comme avant. Je remercie la personne qui a fait cette vidéo qui m’a bien aidé. 😃👍🏻 Ma barre de son est une Sony HT-SF200
I have been trying for over a month.. Every step u have told .. But dont know.. It didn't worked earlier.. But after watching ur video.. It worked 😍.. Thank u 🙏
WORKED! Absolutely no clue why it decided to separate itself from the TV, but it did. Samsung sound bars have great sound but are fussy sometimes. Now if I could just get it to come on & go off with the TV I'd be in good shape. thank you!!
I have been pulling my hair out over two days tying to get a Bose 600 soundbar working with the eArc HDMI port on my LG Smart TV with no success. I came across this video and followed the instructions to unplug the power from both TV and soundbar, then unplug all connections to my TV, then plug in the tv to power and wait 20 seconds for the TV to power up, then plug the soundbar to power, then plug the soundbar HDMI to the eArc connection on the TV and then select a Amazon Prime show. NOW SOUND IS COMING OUT OF THE SOUNDBAR! Then I plugged in the cable box and my Blu-Ray DVD player. All is working now! It’s important to follow the sequence outlined in this video.

The first tip fixed it for me (hdmi out on speaker and hdmiARC on tv). I was extremely frustrated, really appreciate this btw
Thank you! I was pulling my hair out and finally found your video, I had plugged my HDMI cable into the In HDMI port and not the OUT.
I followed his suggestions and it fixed my issue. Great presentation and good to see someone who isn't full of themselves

I would suggest that you look for and download the manual for your model.
Getting the manual will help you with syncing it to turn off when you turn off the tv. And then on when you turn on the tv.
