I just bought a Samsung 55KS8000. I love it except I cannot get the audio to work correctly!

Knowing the TV only had optical audio out, I purchased this Insignia Digital to Analog converter which connects to my existing baby amp for the two bookshelf speakers I have.

When it is all hooked up and the TV's audio is set to the optical out line, I get nothing but horrible buzzing/static from my speakers. From what I've searched online, it seems most people with this problem are trying to push 5.1 speaker system, but I only have a 2 channel system. The Insignia says PCM only which I've set on the TV and played with other audio settings, but nothing I've done corrects the problem.

I apologize for my ignorance and any help or guidance on my situation would be greatly appreciated!
