Dotis is correct. Your HDMI cable from the receiver needs to be plugged into the HDMI (ARC) plug. Then you need to configure that plug to send sound back to the receiver. You do this by activating the ARC function in your TV's settings. I don't have a VISIO TV so I don't know exactly how you do that. ARC stands for Audio Return Channel and it simply needs to be turned on.

You have your HDMI plugged into the correct port? Make sure its on sat\cbl. It should work

I have a Samsung Smart Tv and had the same problem to begin with. I had to go into settings and enable the TV to send audio back down the HDMI cable. Not sure where that is on Visio. Also, make sure you use the proper HDMI plug on the receiver. Only one accepts audio from the TV. Of course, if your TV can't send sound as well as receive it thru the same HDMI, you'll have to use an optical cable or digital connection to get surround from your TV. Hope this helps.

Check your TV to see if it has optical output. If it does, then hook up the optical cable to it. Note: some of the sound will NOT process by this model (like XBOX games, or sounds has DTS). In that case you have to use RCA cable to hook up from your TV to this sound bar. I also found an issue with this model is that, when the sound bar is on, it will mess up my wireless connection to my laptop.

I have a vizio 65 inch 3-d hd tv had never thought about plugging it in to my tv so I tried it the tv didn't swap sound signal from the front speakers to my headset so I unplugged them maybe its just my tv the headset has a usb end on it ( keep in mind that as im writing you this that im very sick with a head cold or flu maybe theres a set up I could have done that would have allowed the headset to work I just didn't explore it deeply enough )

Make sure your input src is clean. If you pass through the tv it may not work, get audio straight from the sat box or whatever and make sure that outputs dolby 5.1.

Check the Onkyo website FAQs for your unit. There is a list of reasons there. It isn't explained well in their manual. Make sure your blu ray isn't doing the decoding and sending a multichannel signal.

Hi Kathleen, I watch over the air HD all the time and my soundbar works fine. I can't think of anything that would make it not work. Possibly a setting on your TV?

I am guessing you have a smart/web connected TV and you want the sound to come from the receiver. Check if your TV has an audio output either digital/optical . Look at your TV settings . I am guessing the TV has multiple HDMI ports. How would the TV know where to send the output ?

Matthew...Who do you use for Broadcast service...cable, Fios, DirecTV? I am having the same issue with this TV, Samsung Surround sound system and DirectTv. I am thinking it may have something to do with going through a receiver for surround sound. Do you use one?

I had the same issue. I called the toll-free number for VIZIO and a very knowledgeable tech walked me through the steps to make it right. I suggest you do the same:)

There appears to be an earphone jack at the rear of the TV. I connected my earphone plug, but no sound came through to the earphone. I have a Vizio 26" E260MV which has an earphone jack to the rear of the TV. The sound is better than what you get through the speakers.

Thank you very much for responding. You have confirmed that this seems to be an anomaly. I'll contact Vizio. Problem is this is a replacement unit for my first unit that had a bad USB port. Starting to lose faith.

Hi Bantjh2o, the issue with the input is controlled by your TV and not by the SoundBar. The SoundBar is an Audio Ouput device which doesn't have control over Input selection.

I dont think the 3D has anything to do with the sound. Audio on this unit is very good. May I suggest that you ask Vizio the tech question.

I've checked out other websites besides YouTube on my LG 32LM6200 TV and all have sound where appropriate. If the website doesn't have a separate sound icon on its screen, then I would check to make sure you have all updates installed. Maybe that would help.

Do you have component put to your TV? If you have something connected to the receiver using component cables you have to have component cables ran to the TV from the receiver also otherwise you won't have picture just sound
