Please See Question Details For My Question. Thanks.

Hi, I have a VSX 26TX and a new Samsung Smart TV. Everything is working on both units. I have connected an optical digital capble from the TV out to the VSX optical in (there are three inputs, and I have tired them all). The manual says it should go to input 4. But I am not getting audio from the receiver in any configuration. First question is, which input? Then, should I select "TV" mode or some other mode on the receiver to test the connection. Lastly, and I suppose this is likely the culprit, is there an on screen setup switch that needs to be turned on to enable this feature? Thanks for any help. Gary
