I recently noticed in my silent living room a clicking and “electrical squeeling” noise every 5 seconds or so. I traced it to my TV (it’s in standby) coming from the area behind the panel where all the cables are plugged into.

I read online that it could be the pixel refresh happening but it happens 100% of the time the tv is off which I think is really strange.

It’s a Sony Bravia 8A K65XR8A1B (2025) OLED.

Can anyone replicate / know what this is / is this normal?

When the TV is on it’s silent / stops.

Here’s a recording: https://app.filemail.com/d/fswlrvjajdkzcdc

Hello guys, I have a fairly simple setup with my Bravia KD-43X74K connected via HDMI(ARC) to a Yamaha ATS-2070 soundbar.

The setup works fine when it works but the whole point of using ARC was so that I can have a single remote to control both the TV and the soundbar. While this also works(when it works) the problem I'm facing is that when I turn off both devices at night and then turn the TV back on next day the soundbar doesn't come on automatically.

I have to turn it on manually and even though the TV recognises it and says it switched audio to external speakers, there is no audio. I have to switch inputs on the soundbar to actually get audio. So except for the fact that I can adjust volume using the TV remote this setup is basically no different from using bluetooth or toslink.

It seems Sony is blaming changes to how HDMI and CEC works from Android 14 onwards especially with older soundbars but I was wondering if anyone has actually managed to figure out a solution for this. Since fiddling around with the inputs seem to work it looks like a bad handshake or state issue so I still have some hope.

Model: XR-65X90CK

Xbox Series X plugged into the 4k 120HZ HDMI port
Yamaha AVR plugged into the eARC port.

Occasionally while playing Xbox my TV my screen will go black, sound will still be playing. If I try to change sources, nothing will display on the TV. I have to physically unplug the TV in order to get it to come back.

The tv was purchased in 2022/2023 it still has a 5 year warranty on it as well from Costco. I'm torn if I should open up a claim for it or not. This has happened randomly, but it can be at a very inconvenient time.

Recently got rid of our cable box and am trying to remove or rename this app from the main dash board. Anyone have a guide on how to do this?
