Check the digital audio output setting on the
connected device. On some game consoles, such as
those that support DVD, the default setting is off.
—
With some DVD-Video discs, you need to select an
audio output format from a menu.
—
Depending on the input signal, some listening modes
cannot be selected.

If no surround back speakers and front high speakers
are connected, or the Zone 2 speakers are being used,
6.1/7.1 playback is not possible.

Using cable ties to bundle audio cables with power
cords, speaker cables, and the like may degrade the
audio performance, so refrain from doing it.
—
An audio cable may be picking up interference. Try
repositioning your cables.
—
Make sure the source material is Dolby Digital,
Dolby Digital Plus, and Dolby TrueHD.

Make sure that the “TrueHD Loudness
Management” setting is not set to “Off”. The Late
Night function doesn’t work when this setting is
disabled.

When DTS program material ends and the DTS
bitstream stops, the AV receiver remains in DTS
listening mode and the dts indicator remains on. This
is to prevent noise when you use the pause, fast
forward, or fast reverse function on your player. If
you switch your player from DTS to PCM, you may
not hear any sound because the AV receiver does not
switch formats immediately. In such case, you should
stop your player for about three seconds and then
resume playback.
—
With some CD and LD players, you won’t be able to
playback DTS material properly even though your
player is connected to a digital input on the AV
receiver. This is usually because the DTS bitstream
has been processed (e.g., output level, sampling rate,
or frequency response changed) and the AV receiver
doesn’t recognize it as a genuine DTS signal. In such
cases, you may hear noise.
—
Playing DTS program material, using the pause, fast
forward, or fast reverse function on your player may
produce a short audible noise. This is not a
malfunction.
—
Since it takes longer to identify the format of an
HDMI signal than it does for other digital audio
signals, audio output may not start immediately.
