Amazon Prime no sound

Options
Tried using Prime via chromecast but only get pics no sound.Does not happen when watching videos etc only live rugby!! Tried another chromecast- not sound.Tried my chromecast on another location - works!! Tv is Sony Bravia.Tried all the HDMI ports all same. Amazon asked whether the sound was turned up! Mind you watching Wales without sound might be a good option at the moment!

    We had exactly the same problem with our Bravia but found when we shut it off and put it on again it was fine for a while, then just pressed the ok button twice on the remote control and the sound came back.  
  • Thanks comeandgo but the prob only happens watching Prime live via the chromecast. Could it be that the Wi-Fi isn't "strong enough?
  • What are you using to do the casting ? PC ? check the sounds output on that

    Yes, that's when we had the problem, watching the rugby.  
  • Ha,Ha good one
  • We are using Chromecast and the sound loss is ONLY on live Prime broadcasts- tennis today for example.

    Was that your response to the post I've quoted? If yes, why? It was a reasonable suggestion.

    You still haven't said what you're using to cast to the Chromecast. (A CC doesn't have apps on it - it needs something else to tell it where to look).
  • Sorry were_doomed, I was talking about the rugby.Were are using Samsung S9 to cast to chromecast.This sound lack ONLY occurs with live Prime broadcasts.
