Template:TroubleShooting:ARC

ARC setting on your Television vary from manufacturer to manufacturer. So please double check your TV setup manual.

Common issues for the lack of ARC audio:
1. The standard Linn DSM can only playback stereo audio. If the TV is set to output Dolby Digital or other Surround format then the Linn DSM will not play this audio and stay silent. 
  > Make sure the audio output is set to "STEREO"'

2. The TV audio setup may be conflicting with itself.
  > If possible do an "AV RESET" or equivalent on your TV, then setup for Audio format - Stereo and CEC-enabled (CEC can go by different names AnyNet+, Veiralink, SimpLink, RIHD, Kuro Link..... etc. Check what your TV call it)

3. You are connect to the wrong socket on your TV. 
  > Check the Linn DSM HDMI output is connected to the TV socket that states "ARC"


4. Sony TV's and SKY-Q: It has been reported that this configuration can cause lack of ARC audio. When it does work and crack/bang noise from the speaker when the system is put to Sleep/Standy. 
  > The solution is to disable HDMI control and power cycle all of the products. (This is primarily an issue between Sky-Q and Sony Tv's communications)
