Bose Cinemate not producing sound for cable box, but works for Bluray on new Smart TV?

coppolino9 · Dec 14, 2018

Hello. I have an older Bose Cinemate 1 (only RCA cable output). I just purchased a new Smart UHD TV that ONLY has optical/HDMI inputs. I bought a digital/analog converter from RCA to Optical, but I only get sound when the input on the TV is selected for the HDMI for the Bluray, and not the HDMI for the Cable box?

Check that the audio settings for the TV and cable box are set for PCM stereo. Most DACs won't accept a bitstream 5.1 input so no sound.

That's totally what it was. It was under 'advanced settings', and had to change to PCM under a separate drop down. Thanks!
