Apple TV 4K 2nd Gen Dolby Atmos Intermittent Issues
I have a 4K 2nd Gen (2021) Apple TV, on latest update, connected directly to a Denon AVR-X4500H (speaker setup is 5.2.4). I have had the Apple TV since launch. I have had no issues playing Dolby Atmos, but this week I noticed when playing Dolby Atmos content on Netflix or from my Apple Library, the Dolby Atmos displays on the receiver, it works fine and then intermittently pops out of random speakers, makes a buzzing noise or just cuts over to DD Surround but no sound. Then it switches back to Dolby Atmos after 10-30 seconds. I've tried changing the HDMI cable, changing ports on the receiver, HDMI Connection Test, restarting the Apple TV, etc. Again, it happens randomly. Should I roll back to a previous sw update? Or is there a known hardware issue with the Apple TV ? I've seen similar complaints on other forums with the Marantz/Denon.
Yes, I have checked other media streamers that do Dolby Atmos (Xbox Series X) and they play fine.
