Toshiba TV to Yamaha Receiver. Send Help.

I have Toshiba 52HL167 TV and a Yamaha R-S202 receiver, and the two are not working together. I have a digital audio converter connected to an optical wire and the converter, and RCA plugs going from the converter to the "in" RCA ports on the Toshiba. Another RCA cable connects from the "out" port to the Yamaha's "in." The receiver displays the correct line. I talked to Yamaha's troubleshooting staff, and I know the problem is not with the functionality of its RCA ports. I suspect that the toshiba is either broken or I do not have the correct setting. A straigh-up analog connection has not worked either. Any tips?

On my Samsung, I have to explicitly tell the TV, "use external speakers.".

Shouldn't be that hard.

"On my Samsung, I have to explicitly tell the TV, use external speakers"

This function doesn't exist on my Toshiba.

Well then logic dictates you have a faulty TV, but if I have to bet my money, I still say is user error, sorry the bluntness.

I'm beginning to suspect that the analog ports are defective. They are correctly wired and no sound at all is coming from the system, even though the Bluetooth works fine.
