    Only surround sound from games?


    Hello!

    I am really hoping to find some help as it just took me a few weeks to rewire my HT for the xbox one.

    I am now running my xbox one to my Denon 2312 recevier to my videoprojector all through high speed hdmi.

    I am getting perfect video but ally my games and blu rays are playing audio only through my 2 front channels...center speaker and surrounds are mute. I've tried it on my old bluray player and it works perfectly. I went to ausdio setting on the xbox and tried
    5.1 uncompressed and compressed but still nothing.

    I know there is a similar problem with tv/cable passthrough where you should check the beta version of the system, but here i'm talking about games and blurays played directly from the xbox. Can someone please help me out? Is there something i'm doing wrong?
    Do i really need to pass an optical cable too? I'm going nuts here trying to figure out what's wrong!

    Any help is appreciated! Thanks!

    Andrew

  2. Still only getting stereo even with straight HDMI.

    This should answer you from Xbox One support website :

    Digital surround with TV on Xbox One

    Support for digital surround sound from your cable or satellite box is currently available as a beta. By default, only stereo sound will be received.

    Follow these steps to enable digital surround sound:

    1.From Home, say “Xbox, go to Settings” or select the Settings tile from My games & apps.

    2.Select TV & OneGuide.

    3.Select Troubleshooting.

    4.Select the Surround Sound (BETA) option.

    Note Your Xbox One can produce digital surround sound for games and Blu-ray or DVD movies. Only the digital audio pass-through from your cable or satellite box is in beta.

    HDMI Audio Setting

    Surround sound is only currently available from a DVD or Blue Ray. The Xbox One will not pass your cable surround sound through to your home theater receiver, it will only be stereo. There is a beta for this:

    Settings

    My Games & Apps

    TV & One guide

    Trouble Shooting

    Surround Sound Beta



    Hard to believe isn't it?
