My sky stream puck makes a constant buzzing/humming noise when audio is on.

Humming noise is only on sky and other sources on the TV don't make the noise. It comes out the TV speaker and only when a channel is not selected or if you are in the menu, when audio is coming out from a channel being selected it stops.

I have this too.

You can get rid of it by selecting PCM audio out in settings, but then you don't get your Dolby Atmos.

I toggled it to Dolby Digital Plus and that worked for a week or so then came back so I'm back to copying with the buzz for now.

Hi Everyone

 

Thank you for bringing this issue to our attention, and I offer our apologies for the problem.

 

So that we can investigate fully, can I ask for some further detail around the issue, please?

  • When you do hear this noise?
  • How would you describe the sound?
  • What is the name and model of the TV that you are using?
  • Are you using any AV equipment, if so, what is the name and model?
  • What sound settings do you have set?

I'll be merging some other discussions into the thread, so it may look a little out of sorts.

 

I've marked it as the answer for now, so that people can see the most up-to-date information.

Thanks

I have changed the sound settings from Dolby to pcm stereo and it seems to stop the humming.
