Using Sony HT-CT60 with XBOX ONE?

I can't figure out how to get my sound bar to work with my XBOX ONE. I tried to add a device but HT CT60 wasn't listed. Can someone help?

Xbox One 5.1 Optical Surround Sound Problems - No Sound From Rear Surround Speakers

Hey Team,

I need some help, I think after scanning the web its my physical hardware set up that is prohibiting 5.1 surround sound. But I can't find the exact answer.

Problem: I am getting a test tone on all speakers, however I get no audio on the rear surround speakers playing games and films or running a streaming 5.1 test video.

Set up:

Xbox one

Sony HT-RT4 5.1 system (supports DTS + Dolby)

Xbox>>Optical>>Sony HT-RT4

Xbox>>HDMI>>Epson EH-TW5300 Projector

From what I gather the ideal option is to use an AMP/AR in-between the xbox HDMI and the projector and use standard speakers cables etc (traditional system)... In my situation the Sony HT-RT4 has Analogue input/HDMI ARC/Optical. I think my system wants to
have the Xbox>>HDMI>>TV>>OPTICAL>>Sony HT-RT4 however Im not using a TV I'm going straight to the projector with an HDMI, so this leaves me to connect the Xbox optical output straight into the HT-RT4.

I've tried selecting DTS/Dolby/Enabling surround sound for HDMI even though I'm not using this.

I have a feeling my only option is to send the HT-RT4 back and buy an AMP set up. Am I doing anything wrong? Or is this current set up not going to work?

 

Xbox One - Low Sound on Sony HT-RT5 Soundbar

Hello, I'm having volume issues using my Xbox One while connected to the Sony HT-RT5 Soundbar/5.1 system. Here is my configuration:

Cable Input > DirecTV Genie > Xbox One > Sony HT-RT5 > Samsung 60" HDTV (all connections via HDMI)

When I use the Bluetooth audio feature on the HT-RT5, the volume can get quite loud when the sound bar goes to max. However, when I'm watching TV or using Netflix, etc., the volume is quite low, even when the HT-RT5 is on MAX volume.

Previously the configuration was Cable Input > DirecTV Genie > Xbox One > Samsung 60" HDTV, and this volume issue didn't exist. So the question is - how does the introduction of this audio device suddenly cause my Xbox volume to be low?

Any help or advice in investigating would be helpful.

 

Try IR code: 3700

Thanks. I ended up just buying a longer digital optical cable and plugged it directly to the console.

 

I'm having the same problem did getting a different optical cable enable the system to find it?

 

No as the problem I was having was to get it to play Audio. Any optical cable should work but the one I had wasn't long enough for my purposes. The code provided above did work to enable voice control.
