Apple TV tvOS 17.2 beta ruined audio switching between tv speaker and soundbar (alien.top)

Since tvOS beta 2, my Apple TV audio output is broken, it keeps changing output to my Sony TV speaker and Sony HT-A9 speaker, every fuxking 30s. Each time the audio output changes, Sony tv goes black. Impossible to watch anything. I tried everything, turns off volume control & control tv & receivers. Not working. Somehow I had found a way to stop the audio switching but I lost the function to use the Apple TV remote to turn on/off Sony TV & HY-A9 soundbar. I now have to use three remote respectively to turn on & off the 3 devices.

Today tvOS 17.2 beta 4 is out, and I have updated it. The problem still exists. 😭

Anyone have similar issues? Can you confirm it’s the beta firmware problem not problem of settings on my TV/soundbar ?

It’s a beta. Did you report this?

I have a Samsung TV and Samsung soundbar/system and things have been fine with my Apple TV 4K (2022 model) running tvOS 17.2 DB4.

Works perfectly for me.

I found the fix. It sucks but works. Get a Bluetooth speaker and connect it to your device. Select the Bluetooth as output, then toggle back to the speaker you want. Voila. Fucking Apple man.
