My LG TV : Model 75UM7000PLA
The Problem:
When I want to use my wireless optical headphones, I switch the TV “Sound Out” option to “Optical” or “Internal TV Speaker + Optical.” But when I do this, the TV sends a command to the Yamaha receiver that forces it to switch its input to Optical. This stops playback of my HDMI device connected to the Yamaha because the Yamaha input is changed.
What I would like:
Can LG update the TV firmware so that:
1️⃣ When I select “Optical” or “Internal TV Speaker + Optical” in “Sound Out,” it does not cause the Yamaha receiver to switch its input source?
OR
2️⃣ Add a new “Sound Out” option that sends audio to Optical without sending a command to change the Yamaha input?
OR
3️⃣ Make the existing “Internal TV Speaker” mode also output audio through Optical, but without causing the Yamaha input to switch?
Note:
Disabling ARC is not a good solution because:
Audio from devices connected to the Yamaha receiver still plays on both TV and Yamaha speakers.
Audio from devices connected to the TV no longer plays on the Yamaha speakers.
Thank you!
