Welcome to the Apple Community


Users have experienced differing results when trying to use the Apple TV for audio only. Some have found it works well, others have found that they need to have the TV on to get audio and others have found they need the TV on to start off with, but can turn it off when the audio starts playing.


I suspect these variations result from the type of connection that the TV offers and therefore may vary according to the make/model of TV.
