Apple TV to homepod audio drops out
I want to use my Homepod to play audio while I watch something thru Apple TV. The audio starts fine, but after a few minutes, the audio drops out (no sound). What's going on?
Apple TV 4, tvOS 13

Hi blkbassenator,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities. I understand that you're having trouble with AirPlay audio between your Apple TV and HomePod. I know how convenient it is to be able to use this feature with your devices; I'd like to help. When the audio drops out when you're using AirPlay, does the Apple TV still recognize it's supposed to be sending audio to the HomePod? How to AirPlay audio
I'd also suggest using the steps in the following resource to troubleshoot what could be causing this behavior: If AirPlay or screen mirroring isn’t working on your device
Let me know what you find.
Best Regards.

Thank you for the reply. Since I posted my original comments, I checked to see that my Homepod was running IOS Version 11-something. I have since upgraded to the lastest IOS version and everything seems to be OK.
Hi blkbassenator,
You're welcome! We're glad to hear that updating your HomePod has resolved the issue with AirPlay.
Have a great weekend!
