No sound in rpi4, but only on one tv....
-
@blkhwks19 So I fired it up today for the first time in a while, and I had sound on the preblematic tv! =] I have no idea how, i didnt mess with it or the tv in any way.
So I began playing around with other settings, mostly things like installing some themes, adding a splashscreen, scraped some box art, etc. Typical stuff that doesnt really mess with how things work under the hood. Got all done with that and launched a game......and no sound again =[
The ONLY thing I can think of is that once I got all the tweaks set I wanted, I shut it down, pulled the sd card out and popped it into my pc to check the config.txt file, I wasnt sure what I had left set on or off so just wanted to see what was there. I didnt change anything, put the sdcard back in the rpi4 and booted it up, and got some sdcard errors. Weird. Turned it off and made sure the sdcard was seated properly, and it booted up. Not sure if doing any of this had any impact on the sound issue?
Any thoughts on all that? Getting sound only to have it taken away is demoralizing and such a helpless feeling.

@blkhwks19 Got my sound back! Did a whole bunch of reserach and checked into some config.txt options and tried adding:
hdmi_drive=2... and it seems to work now! Tried in my other tvs and back in this one and everything seems to work. Figured I'd report in case anyone else has spent the time and effort following my long attempt at fixing this =]
