As long as CEC and ARC work. Failures starting to mount. Some claim Samsung TVs at fault; a Sony I set up with a Beam kept switching from Beam to TV speakers until I ran optical output from TV to Beam.
Bump... I'm having this exact issue. Samsung 55QN90C with a Beam. Originally it was set up with HDMI and Arc, but the TV would revert back to TV speakers after a week or two. I swapped HDMI cables (from stock Sonos to Metra Install Bay) thinking I had just tied it down to tightly around the motion mount, now it is very loose, but supported by the mount. (Customer rarely moves TV.)
I'll switch to the optical adapter next. Apparently, I've been lucky to have no real glitches in the last couple years on the basic Arc stuff. Software is up to date on both items. Customer is an older guy, basic system, only other piece is a Firestick.
Thought? Thanks!
Tom
