I just got a pair of AirPods Pro Gen 2 yesterday for my husband’s birthday. We were all excited and tried connecting it to our Samsung Q65AB 55 TV and we got the AirPods connected but no sound. After googling and some trials and errors finally today we got the sound on the AirPods after connecting to the Samsung TV.


What I did was:

  1. Changed the Digital Output Audio Format of my Samsung TV from Auto to PCM. Go to your Samsung TV setting > Sound > Expert Setting > Digital Output Audio Format > change from auto to PCM
  2. Updated my iPhone 14 pro max IOS to 16.2
  3. Lastly connected the fully charged AirPods Pro gen 2 to my iPhone and got the AirPods firmware updated from 5A577 to 5A5B


Yes we got the sound on the TV but it was not perfect, the volume control on the AirPods wasn’t very well as compared to when connected to the iPhone.


You may want to try the above and good luck !!!

Unfortunately my solution is for getting the AirPods to get audio from the TV, not to maintain the connection. When I was experiencing the problems before my solution, I wasn’t getting any audio when I disconnected and reconnected.


I still am experiencing issues with the audio cutting out when I change apps as you mentioned. But at least now when I disconnect and reconnect, I get audio.

Just got my new Airpods pro 2 gen. … and yes, got same problem, no sound whatever I do, tried on 4 sony tv’s, 1 philips and samsung. Tried everything from factory reseting to updating etc., even bought external bluetooth transmitter, nothing. 😢 I guess we need to create a petition like ppl did when butterfly keyboard appeared to be with defect on 2018 macbooks.

Is there any fix for this issue or if Apple gave an official statement about this issue?

I feel stupid after wasting my money on airpods pro gen 2. I was going to buy some gaming wireless headphones to have them on while playing PS5 instead I bought gen2 so that it could be upgrade for my apple products as well as i can even use them with my TV.

But this is so disappointing to face such a issue from apple.

I disagree w my new AirPods pro2 I have no sound even when I control the Samsung tv volume w the AirPods. I see the volume change in the screen up 80 or higher when I push the volume button on my AirPods HOWEVER, Still NO volume at all to my AirPods to hear. I can even hear in AirPods when they connect the connect sound but no voice sound to watch tv comes thru my new expensive AirPods. Ridiculous
