Intermittent audio loss from cable

I have two xbox ones which both experience their own version of dropping audio while the tv application is running.

System 1 - Cable STB connected to X1 via HDMI. X1 is connected to a Pioneer Elite AVR via HDMI. AVR is connected to Sony television via HDMI.

90% of the time I turn the television & receiver off while leaving the X1 active with the TV app. I will frequently turn the TV and AVR back on and their is no audio. Additionally, the AVR will show no active signal to any of the audio channels, when it
typically shows 5.1 audio.

All cables in this setup are HDMI 2.0.

System 2 - Cable STB connected to X1 via HDMI. X1 connected to Samsung TV via HDMI.

In a similar vein, the TV is *** down with the console in the TV application. Almost all the time, when the power is restored to the TV, there is no sound.

Both cables in this setup are the cables provided with the consoles.

Audio can be restored after power cycling the console. The consoles are otherwise left on with the exception of updates. Comcast is my provider and I have the X1 platform.

Are you using the Hdmi cable that came with the XBox #1x

FYI for a digital cable like HDMI, unless you are running long lengths of cable, any 'High-Speed' cable will do the trick and will provide exactly the same video and audio quality as the XboneX cable. And all will do 4k60 HDR. The only difference is build quality. For long lengths of cable certain differences can crop up in cheap cables that cause intermittent picture loss. But still you either get 100% picture quality or nothing at any moment.

Some cheaper cables also were lazy on meeting the High Speed certification so HDMI group released another designation that just indicates further testing for otherwise the same spec.

I wouldn't say all but you don't need to spend more then $10 for a cable
