Sony 65 xbr, hts str-ks360, bd bdp bx57, and Arris dcx3510-m. I am not getting surround sound while streaming. Which HDMI goes where? I am using and optical audio connection. I see I have HDMI arc (not utilizing that Port) on the tv, but not sure I have it on the older theater system. I would just like consistent audio, from the hts. Please give me the best connection instructions. (Oh and PS4 too.)
 
Solution
Assuming you get surround sound when using the BD player and DVR you can try changing the audio output type of the app.
Some TVs won't output audio from apps. Really dumb. Check the fine print in the owners manual. Solution is to use an external streamer.
I would connect all my sources to the TV with HDMI and use the optical out of the TV to get audio to the HTS.
