    Subject: Arc Function not producing sound
    Date: 18.07.2022 19:02:30Name: Efrain Fernandez
    Good Afternoon, I connected my Sony tv to my pioneer Av receiver model# VSX-S520 with an hdmi cable using the arc function. I’m not getting any sound. My tv is brand new and also has an arc hdmi port. So it is compatible. The only way I get sound is using a optical cable. Although it works fine with the opt cable, I would like to control my system with one remote. I tried everything and could really use some help in this matter. Thank you.
