hi @precinct88 

 

When you say everything does that include a complete power down (i.e. switch off or remove plug) of your TV.

 

We often find that a power down of the TV restores sound for people

Re: mute

yes, switched off at plugs too. TV has sound but not sky box.

Can I suggest you try toggling the setting in :

Home - Settings - Setup - Audio Visual

 

Set to a different setting & fully exit

Then go back and change back to the one you normally use.

Have you also tried unplugging the HDMI cable at both ends and then plugging back in - I am guessing you probably have but, if not, I suggest you try this also.

 

BTW Can I just double check that you only use your TV for sound and not a Sound bar or AV amp

 

Also can you confirm what your usual setting is - is it Normal or Dolby Digital ?

I hope that does the trick for you. 

 

After that I admit I am running out of ideas  - often the complete power down does cure such problems
