ps3 sound problem.

Schizo · 9 Mar 2014 at 09:23

Had my ps3 a few months now.

Purchased 2nd hand from here and its been great,I use it as a media player from my pc and have it connected to my Samsung bluRay 5.1 system via optical,sounds great watching a film from my pc and can't really fault it.

Now here comes a strange problem,it won't output to my Samsung when playing games or watching a bluray,it will produce sound via hdmi but I want it to output in to my Samsung surround sound.

Any ideas would be great as it is bugging me now.

Tried everything,the strange thing is this,when I'm in the ps3 menu and leave it on the game (without starting it) it will produce sound but once I'm in the game it won't.

I have tried everything as far as I'm aware,with a optical input I didn't think there was any setting as it is digital input or am I wrong ?

Come to think of it,games used to work when I got the ps3 but now the sound has gone.

Same here but with no sound when a disk is played.

All working now thank god,I unticked the dts 5.1. (2nd option) and I have sound with the game now,don't have a blu Ray to try but the game works so I can't see a film not working.

I must have mucked about with some settings when I got my new headset ....thanks for the help guys and your time dano.
