After Apple TV 4 goes to sleep it consistently comes back on with no sound. A restart fixes the issue, but I'm getting really annoyed by having to restart all the time. Apple TV 2 had the same issue but happens maybe 4 times in 3yrs, not everytime like my brand new one.
Apple TV (4th generation), iOS 9.0.1
Welcome to the Apple Community.
Sounds like it might be the TV it's connected to, try it with another TV.
I have this issue as well. Have you had any success in fixing this problem?
I figured out my issue. When I would use the Apple TV remote to power on my TV this would happen. Turning on the tv first then waking the Apple TV has resolved my issue.
Same issue here. Hopefully this can be solved with a software update.
I have the exact same problem.
It seems like, that the problem comes when the Apple Tv goes to Sleep by it self. If I "put it to sleep" the there is sound when I turn it on...
Same here. As a work around disconnecting the hdmi and plugging it back in resolves the issue faster than the atv restart. Hopefully they will fix this soon. It's very disappointing.
I have the same issue. My problem occurs when I turn off my TV and AV receiver with a Harmony remote. That sequence does not power off Apple TV4 - I never programmed it to be turned off because I need it to stay on as the HomeKit relay for my HomeKit compatible devices to be controlled when I'm outside my network.
When I turn on my TV and AV receiver with the Harmony remote, in about 80% of cases, there's no sound coming from Apple TV. Initially, I was rebooting my Apple TV to restore sound, but then, I realized that I can just put it to sleep with the Apple TV4 remote and then wake it up. After it wakes up, the sound is restored.
This is an annoying bug, which Apple still hasn't fixed.
This is exactly what happens to me when I use the harmony remote to power on. I was going to take my Apple TV to the Genius Bar the weekend but I fear any other Apple TV will do exactly the same thing.
Same thing ... Really annoying ... should NOT be happening!
I think I have fixed my issue. I was using a harmony remote and have put a delay in the Apple TV power on. This is so the tv turns on first and is on when the Apple TV powers on. Hasn't happened at all in 3 days now, touch wood.
See my post above, maybe you should try it.
No sound when atv4 wakes up from sleep.
