Try and keep the cable clear of other connectors, especially power, in the tangle of wires behind your TV. Simply moving the 3.5mm cable can sometimes solve this issue. If this doesn’t solve the problem, make sure your TV volume is turned all the way up so you can adjust the sound bar’s volume directly.
Why is my sound bar not connecting to my TV?
Ensure that your TV and other boxes aren’t outputting in surround sound, again by finding the audio settings menus and ensuring they’re set to either 2.0 or 2.1. If you’re using a 3.5mm aux cable to connect to your sound bar, this is likely the culprit.
Do you need a plug for a wireless sound bar?
If your sound bar is advertised as having a ‘wireless’ subwoofer, you still need to connect the woofer to a plug socket. If your subwoofer is ‘passive’, this means it needs to be connected directly to the sound bar using a cable.
Why is no sound coming out of my sound bar?

Can a sound bar be connected to a TV?
However, some sound bars are more sensitive than others and some will power down even when there’s audio being played at a quiet volume. Some cheaper sound bars may only offer a 3.5mm audio input. We’d only ever recommend using this connection if your TV or sound bar has no digital alternatives such as digital optical (Toslink), coaxial or HDMI.
