I've recently purchased a C3 () and SP7R () and have them connected via HDMI cable... I have a weird anomaly that when I turn my TV on with my Roku or PS5 controller. The TV turns on, the sound is working just fine via (HDMI ARC) but within 3-4 seconds I get a Sound Icon of "0", Screen goes black for a minute, then it goes back to whatever the HDMI input was (PS5 or Roku), and then the sound works just as it should through the HDMI ARC connection. It appears as though the SoundBar has a brainfart and has to reestablish the HDMI ARC connection? Anyone have any tips or suggestions for this problem? It's really only a minor issue upon startup and once it's up and running it works perfectly but it is an annoying glitch. I thought about switching to an optical cable set up, but then it appears I might lose of the functionality?
My connections are as follows:
HDMI1 - Roku
HDMI2 (ARC) - SP7R w/ a Nintendo Switch Passthrough
HDMI3- PS5
HDMI4- Xbox One
