Question No Audio from HDMI ARC Speakers during Smart TV Apps

[Steven Mal]

I have Klipsch The Fives speakers hooked up to my LG OLED B7A. The Klipsch speakers work when I watch TV, or use my Xbox or PS5 but when I use various smart TV apps (Prime, Netflix, Hulu, Tubi) there is no audio from the speakers. Why will the speakers play audio from the "regular" TV, and the Xbox and PS5 but not when I use the TV apps for Prime, Netflix, Hulu, and Tubi? How do I get the speakers to play audio from Prime, Netflix, Hulu, and Tubi? Thank you.

How do you have the Klipsch speaker connected to the tv? Possible to post a pick of the connections?

Funny enough, I also have Klipsch speakers hooked up to an lg oled tv which is also hooked up to game consoles. Good taste, aside from the xbox lol.
Anyway, I had this issue as well, although my Klipsch set is analog only and what resolved my issue, was that I had to get an audio converter/splitter to route the tv audio through.
You can find them on Amazon. The cheaper the price, the lower the overall sound quality, it seems. Though it appears yours may not be analog only, so you may not need to get one, not entirely sure.

Thank you for your replies. The speakers are connected to the TV with the HDMI ARC cable.
