No sound when using streaming apps (Netflix, disney +, etc)

Last week out of the blue I lost sound out of my X1 box. I went into audio setting and changed it from Auto Detect to Expert and sound came back. Weird but ok. Then I went into Netflix there was no sound again. Went back into audio settings and tried auto again (nope) and finally stereo and that works but I lose my 5.1 in that mode. Does anyone know why this has happened? What changed? Was there a firmware update or something? I also tried resetting SAP and that has not helped. Anyone else experience this? Any ideas? Thanks

Hello, @user_01694b! That is an odd audio issue to have and how it's affecting different aspects of your programs. Have you tried resetting the Cable Box or have you taken any troubleshooting steps on your own aside from changing the audio settings?

Yes I did a power cycle on the X1 box and TV and changed out hdmi cables.

Thanks for letting us know! I'd like to look into the audio issue further. We may need to reprovision the cable box on our end, but either way, we will get this resolved. :) Can you please click the Peer to Peer chat icon at the top right of the page, click on the pen and pad icon and enter Xfinity Support in the "To" section of the chat and provide us with your first and last name so we may further assist you.

If a resolution was found could you share?  I installed a new TV last night (TCL 55R646) and I have the same issue.  Channels play sound but apps do not.
