Sound problem: connecting TV via HDMI-usb-c MacBook Pro M1 2020

Friends, perhaps someone faced the following problem:

When connecting a macbook pro 2020 m1 via HDMI-usb-c adapter, no sound is transmitted to the TV, the image is transmitted. In the sound settings, the output device of the TV is displayed - I select it and there is no result. The usb driver is AppleT8103USBXHCI. Adapter - Telecom TUC010.

Try mac book pro 2018 - everything works with this adapter.

MacBook Pro 13″, macOS 12.3

Apple TV 4K HDR issues on Samsung TV There are several older threads about this issue here, as well as a lengthy one on Reddit, but the solutions are varied, yet no one seems to be able to explain whether they originate from a software glitch on the Apple TV device or not. In brief: my Apple TV 4K has been working great for a few months with a Samsung 4K TV (a TU8000 model) until one day, the colors of everything on the Apple TV main screen and menus appeared greyed out/bluish/washed out. Unplugging the HDMI cable, changing the HDMI cable, changing the HDMI port on the TV, performing a reset of the Apple TV 4K, etc. - none of those worked. Disabling the HDR video format on the Apple TV 4K and enabling 4K SDR instead resulted in a mix of proper and incorrect colors - the menus looked good enough, but when streaming anything on any app (I tried Netflix, Paramount Plus, etc.), the greys and whites were incorrect, etc. What fixed the issue in my case was resetting the picture settings of my Samsung TV and then reenabling 4K HDR video format from the settings of the Apple TV 4K. My TV, by the way, supports HDR10+ and Dolby Vision. My question is: could someone from Apple explain why this keeps happening? There are older threads about this problem from 5-6 years ago, so this hasn't been fixed yet. And, while, in my case, it seems that there was some issue between the TV picture settings and the Apple TV 4K video format, this issue popped out of nowhere, without me changing anything on either the TV or the Apple TV 4K settings.

Greetings dankor08,

If you have tried using a different adapter with the same results, the next step will be to Contact Apple Support directly for further assistance.

Take care.
