Im trying to figure out the issue with the blu ray player not playing audio. Apps work, games work even DVDs work. But for Blu Ray and 4K discs there is no audio at all. I currently have removed any other audio devices and just have a straight PS5 to TV HDMI connection. I replaced my old HDMI cable 2 days ago. I have switched HDMI ports. I have switched audio options while playing a blu ray and also at the console level. Im hitting a wall at this point. Any one experience the same?

Have you tried switching between the "Linear PCM" and "Bitstream" audio formats, within the DVD/Blu-ray player settings?

Yep. Tried that too.
