I am in process of connecting my Samsung TV to a Bose sound system and can not
make the optical audio connection function. The system functions perfectly
using the analog audio cables alternative.
When plugged into the TV, light comes out of the end of the optical cable so
that appears to be OK though what is encoded is of course not apparent. The
connectors fit snugly and positively at both ends. I can find nothing written
in the Samsung TV book or in the on screen menu items that are anywhere
relevant.
Interestingly, when BOTH the optical and audio cable are plugged in the Bose is
silent - when the optical cable is then removed the sound plays. Clearly the
opticall cable/ signal is recognised.
From my internet readings I see many problems with optical cables reported.
Am I missing something? (yes, I took the end caps off the cable!).
