Before you review the list of problems and solutions below, make sure that the 
Speaker Select
 menu item is set to 
TV 
Speaker
, and then listen to the speakers again. If the TV still does not play audio, run the Sound Test. The 
Sound Test
 
uses a built-in melody to check for sound problems. If  the TV does not play sound during the 
Sound Test
, or the sound 
is distorted, there may be a problem with the TV. Contact Samsung’s Call Centre for assistance. If the TV plays the 
Sound Test melody without distortion, there may be a problem with an external device. Please check the connections. If 
the problem persists, refer to the external device’s user manual.
 
If you can't hear the melody or there is a problem, make sure

If you are using an external device, check the device’s audio output option. (For example, you 
may need to change your cable box’s audio option to HDMI if the box connected to your TV is 
using an HDMI cable.)
To listen to the computer sound, connect the external speaker to the computer's audio output 
connector.
If your TV has a headphone jack, make sure there is nothing plugged into it.
Reboot the connected device by disconnecting and then reconnecting the device’s power cable.
The speakers are making 
an odd sound.
Make sure that the audio cable is connected to the correct audio output connector on the 
external device.
For antenna or cable connections, check the signal information. A low signal level may cause 
sound distortions.
