Airplay drops sound after few seconds

Watching movies via Airplay and a MacBook Pro on my TV.

The connection comes up nicely and I see and hear the stream on my TV

After only a few seconds though the audio sound drops off and I can only see the video.

Anyone having the same problem?

Many thanks

Hey helpagerman,

Thanks for the question. After reviewing your post, it sounds like AirPlay works but loses sounds. I would recommend that you read these articles, they may be able to help you resolve or isolate the issue. It may also be network connection issue depending on if your using Wi-Fi or not. There are links for that in the first article.
