I tried and failed to play the analog 3.5mm stereo output and the internal 8 Watt TV speakers at same time. Anybody get this to work?

Darrel is correct. TV speakers are muted when a connector is inserted into the headphone jack. Simultaneous use of the TV speakers and digital audio output from the SPIDF Out should be available.

I plugged it into my tv output and receive the signal to my by head set just fine your just using a different media should be just fine. The only problem I have had in the past with other by in the same room. I have had to isolate the units to pair them.

Hi Eddie.I use a Western Digital Live TV and a Set Top Box. Both connect via HDMI, and both sources have their audio duplicated and sent through the analogue headphone/speaker port. I connect PC speakers to that port and it works great.Greg

I plug all the cables and tv including special cables and could not get it to make any sound, tried my other receivers and they worked. After that I could not make it work, so that is why I decided to return it.

I could not get my powered Martin Logan sub-woofer to work with the sound bar, no sound whatsover. I was going to give it another try but have not had a chance yet.

I don't want to say for sure, since I have not tried or needed to try this, but there is a settings option "HDMI Audio to TV" with on/off which I assume can bypass the amp and allow the tv speakers to play for certain devices. Might even be able to set this up per source (have not verified).

You just have to select the correct output "mode." There are several options including a stereo. Hope that helps.

I had the same issue on my Sony TV until I changed the TV output to 'Audio System' rather than front speakers. Have a look in your TV settings

How are you hooking up the rest of the channels? Via 5.1 in the motherboard? TOSLINK (digital/optical)? Explain your setup in detail and I can probably help you out.

You may have to change the setting on your tv to use the external speaker. Mine sounds great.

Paul is correct. You need 2 seperate moduls to make this work. Not including the reciever. Distribution module and line input (composite audio).

Sandra,How is it connected?Have you gone into your TV's menu to switch the audio to "external speakers"?Thanks for your interest in Samsung products.--Mr. S

Without knowing a lot more about what you are connecting, I can only offer things to check. It worked out-of-the box for me. Check these: Is the 3.5mm plug into the computer headphone jack, is that volume all the way up and selected as the playback device? (Plug a set of headphones in to make sure). Not knowing the TV for playback, it seems you can see the image, yeah? Check that the TV is set for internal speakers, audio set from HDMI and the volume is up. These are things you might have already tried, including a different computer/TV setup. Lastly? Try a different adaptor although I'm leaning towards an incorrect setting on the computer or TV.

I didn't have any problem getting audio from the two RCA outputs...how do you have it hooked up?

I have my system connected the way you have listed (minus the wii) and the tv speakers don't work at all. Any suggestions?

Exact same thing happened to me. I am in the process of shipping it out for repair. The unit is of terrible construction and the electronics flaked. I actually got a sub -woofer and wireless surround speakers for my TV which are 10 times better.
