Audio OUT from the new TelusTV-21T digital boxes
What is the recommended way to connect a sound bar to the new TelusTV-21T digital boxes? AND retain the supplied remote volume control power functions? There seem to be ZERO 3rd party AIO remo...
- Connect the sound bar to the TV not the Optik box. If you're TV supports ARC on one of the HDMI inputs then that is the easiest. Another option is to use the digital audio out (optical) from the TV which would require you to adjust some audio settings to turn off the built in TV speakers. Consult your TV manualb if you don't know where the settings are.

Thanks for the reply. Will that allow me to "control" the sound bar via the Telus box or TV? Trying to use only ONE remote. Ideally, the Soundbar is off when the TV is off, and the volume buttons on the Telus remote control the sound bar, not the built in TV speakers. The only ARC-enabled TV I have is plugged into a receiver so that is not an issue (other than multiple remotes). My other TV's are older and use the Anynet+ HDMI protocols, and devices constantly get out of sync or don't work at all...
