I went one step further and physically connected an AV cord out from the TV in to the receiver and still - no sound from the TV. Why is the world would the TV have audio out that doesn't work? I even bought TWO Bluetooth audio transmitters - ran them using AV and an optical cable and still, NO SOUND OUT FROM THE TV. The only sound I can get from the TV (Netflix, Google, etc.) is through the TV. This is driving me insane.
