No sound on Apple TV 4k

The problem with no sound when starting a movie on Apple TV 4k has been around for years and with the latest update even worse. I had to start "the crowded room " four times to get sound. Why is this still unsolved?

thanks 😀

I’ve been having all kinds off audio problems with my setup.


Apple TV 4K A2169

LG C2 OLED

Vizio M-Series 2.1 Dolby atmos soundbar M215aw-K6

Monoprice 8K Certified Braided Ultra High Speed HDMI Cable - HDMI 2.1, 8K@60Hz, 48Gbps, CL2 In-Wall Rated, 28AWG, 10ft, Black


All audio is delayed when you first start streaming by 3 to 5 seconds. Sometimes the Apple TV can’t control the volume of the sound bar until I power cycle everything. Sometimes just center channel audio is missing ie no speech. I worked with Apple 2nd level support for weeks doing tests, videos and taking logs and they ended with this is a bug. Keep your Apple TV updated as we work on fixing it. If I stream a video directly from my LG tv it works fine so it’s definitely the Apple TV. I’ve had these issues with all versions of tvOS 17.
