No Sound With Xboxone

If you've made a change to your home entertainment system, made a change to your Xbox One Display & sound settings, or just set up your console for the first time and have no sound, try the following solutions.

• Check that the TV audio is not muted and is at a reasonable volume.
• Verify that your external or built-in TV speakers are properly connected and turned on.

1. Scroll left from Home to open the guide.
2. Select Settings.
3. Select All Settings.
4. Select Display & sound.
5. Select Video output.
6. Select TV connection.
7. If TV connection is set to "DVI," you'll need an optical audio cable for sound. If you're using an HDMI cable, switch your TV connection to "Auto-detect."
   Note If your screen goes dark after you select HDMI or DVI and the screen doesn't reset after 30 seconds, see Troubleshooting a blank TV or monitor while your Xbox One is on.
8. Back out of Video output by pressing B .

2. Select Settings.
3. Select All Settings.

If your Xbox One console is connected to an audio-visual receiver that's connected to your television and you have no sound, follow these troubleshooting steps:
