“I have a new Samsung TV 65 inch DU6900. I bought this 3 point switch to control TV and JBL 2.0 sound bar. The HDMI cable is connected to the TV Arc and the other to the switch. It works OK but it will not turn the sound bar on and off. Why?”

Hi there. Your TV and soundbar setup is mostly working, but the soundbar isn't turning on and off as expected. This could be due to the HDMI-CEC settings not being enabled on either the TV or the soundbar. Make sure Anynet+ (HDMI-CEC) is turned on in your Samsung TV settings, and check whether your JBL soundbar supports HDMI-CEC. To test if the issue is with the switch, try connecting the soundbar directly to the TV’s HDMI ARC port and see if it powers on and off properly. If it does, then the switch is likely the problem. If HDMI-CEC isn't working through the switch, you may need to manually turn the soundbar on/off or use a universal remote that can control both devices. If you need help adjusting the settings, let me know. Ivy | Insignia Support
