    Is the console inside a TV shelf that is closed off with a door, or is the shelf open?

    Hi, could you try going into Settings/system/console settings/display, disable display discovery in there, does this audio issue still persist ?

    EggsBoxJuan, I changed this setting, it made my resolution bad but I changed it back to 1080p.

    I played a game for an hour and the sound was fine and I was so excited that it might of been fixed. And then literally minutes after i felt i was in the clear... It cut out again.

    This is really frustrating. Sound keeps cutting out while playing games! Help! :(

    Also the color streaking still happens when i turn off my system and when i changed the setting you recommended it happened when the system restarted. Sometimes its blue, sometimes its pink, but its like blocks of streaking color that flash on the screen.
    Not sure if it's related.

    But i never experienced this with my older model. D:

    Hey there C0NCRETE D0LL,

    At this point I recommend testing a different Xbox 360 console with your current set up to see if the issue can be replicated. If you are unable to try a different Xbox 360 console, or a different console does not replicate this issue, I recommend sending
    your Xbox 360 console in for repair. Sound keeps cutting out while playing games! Help! :(

    I am sincerely sorry for the frustration this has caused! If it comes down to the repair, you can start by getting in contact with one of our chat or phone support agents through our
    Contact Us page.

    Feel free to keep us posted!

    Ok so it couldn't be the xbox if it happened on the old one as well which means it is the TV as you said the old xbox didn't use HDMI and you've checked all ports which means there's an internal problem with your TV not xbox, I'd recommend using a headset
    man there's no easy way around it it's obviously the Tv is the Tv new? If so I'd contact the manufacturers or research the model and issue.

    From reading some of your other posts the audio and colour is affected sounds like a bad HDMI as it drags down HD audio and Video, but you said it happened on old xbox with a different connection so I still retain that it's the TV that's malfunctioning as
    easy way to test this is hook it up to another TV in your house for an hour and see if it happens use same HDMI.

  9. Mister Beep: Oh my goodness i feel so dumb! I didn't even think of that. Thanks for all your help. I really appreciate it!

    Damxh: I'm sorry for the confusion, but in my posts i had said that it hasn't happened with my old xbox. I only mentioned the old one because i was wondering if the problem was my hdmi cable because the old model didn't have a hdmi cable. So it is definitely
    my new xbox. I've even plugged in my ps3 recently into that hdmi slot and there were no sound issues what-so-ever.

    The new xbox is so pretty, but it's not working right i guess. xD

    Thanks for all your help guys. I'm going to see about sending it in.

  11. I had this issue for a while as well but my issue was because of my cables being faulty and were shorted out so maybe it could be your Cables going bad.

  12. So I sent in my xbox... It took a while to get there and when i got it back it was completely scratched up. Looked like it was dragged across a table covered in gravel. I take immaculate care of my stuff so this was really ridiculous. I was very upset about
    it. And now they are sending me a new one. I have been without an xbox for 2 months. Sound keeps cutting out while playing games! Help! :(

    Sorry for the delay, due to the holidays I was away and didn't have too much free time.

    I unplugged the hard drive and put it back in, and the sound problem is still persisting...

    I also moved a shelf so there is more room for the xbox. I'm really not sure what it would be... There is now about 6 inches above open and 6-7 inches all around it. It's still in a tv shelf, so its not completely open. But i don't really want to put it
    on my floor since its carpet. Could it really be getting too warm?

    Hey there C0NCRETE D0LL!

    Sorry to hear about the audio issues! I would double verify that all of the TV settings match up by following this guide

    here
    ! In addition, I see that you have changed the TV audio settings, but I would select Digital Stereo if it isn't already. Let us know if that guide helped!

    Ok, so everything was going well. The sound wasn't cutting out for 2 hours. And then it did for another 2 seconds or so. So I think it's maybe still acting up? I was so sure it was fixed after changing that setting. Could it be my tv? It's not crazy old
    or anything, and it was never doing this before the new xbox. I also noticed when i turned off my xbox after the longer use, I got this weird color streaking and blocks flash on the screen when it was going to black screen. Is it getting too hot? Someone told
    me that there are not as many fans in the new build, and i have it in the same location it was before. It's on a shelf in my tv stand. Its enclosed on all sides except the front, and has about 4 inches above it. I'm trying to think of what it could be. I was
    so sure it was fixed! :(

    Although the frequency is much less... Once in a 2 hour period. As opposed to like 12 times in a 2 hour period.
