Before posting my issue I checked the forum and found some relating posts but not a solution…
I recently got a Muso 2 and used HDMI to connect it to my Samsung Q85R. When powering on the tv the Muso powers on which is great. Controlling volume with the tv remote works.
I keep getting the same problem over and over, I have 2 seconds sounds, 2 seconds mute, 2 seconds sound etc
When I pull the plug from TV and Muso it might work again flawless for one tv session but most times the issue gets back in the next tv session until I unplug everything…
Are you on the current latest firmware for both the TV and the Mu-So? Are you connected into the ARC socket and have it set correctly? If so, could be well worth getting in touch with Naim tech support.
PCM 2 channel is exactly right. I would contact support. It’s an odd one as usually issues are down to handshaking so, it’s normally all or nothing on the sound front.
I remember a few posts on Samsung systems the last weeks; including problems appearing “recently”.
Usually Naim goes off and adjusts the firmware to handle all the various TVs vendors/models as best as possible. (This HDMI standard seems to be… open for interpretation by vendors.)
I agree with Richard; just adding the hope, that especially in the “recent Samsung changes” area work might/would already be ongoing to get it fixed.
Ah, I should have proposed optical at first instance.
That one is „dumb“ enough, it works reliably.
(Though it lacks the „remote control“ option from HDMI, I.e. volume control and input switching.)
I’m having the same problem with my Mu-So 2nd gen connected to my Samsung QLED 55QFQ 2018 series. On my old Bluesound Pulse, I could use the Bluesound as soundbar.
I recently solved an issue I had with my Atom and HDMI sound dropping out… I adjusted the lip sync on the atom and for some reason this caused sound to drop out and skip occasionally. I then put atom back to normal and adjusted lip sync in the tv instead. No more problems.
