Solved! Samsung curved series 6 and Yamaha YAS 108

[emro1205]

Hello Everyone,

I have a Samsung series 6 curved smart tv and recently purchased a Yamaha YAS-108 soundbar. I've hooked up the soundbar to the tv using the hdmi arc ports: from the yamaha - HDMI(ARC)OUT and to TV HDMI3(ARC)IN but, I'm not getting any sound at all. if I connect via bluetooth and an optical cable, the sound bar works, but not with HDMI selected. Can someone please help, I've been pulling my hair on this in the last couple days. I have disconnected all the connections for 10-15 mins as per recommendations from other google postings I've read online, I've reset the tv to factory default settings and yet, still couldn't get the sound bar to work with the tv. Appreciate and thanks everyone in advance for any help you can give.

Emro

Did you turn on ARC in the TV set up menu? It's not usually on by default.
You may also have to turn the TV speakers off to get it working. Check the TV manual.
