Unless you have a very high end Onkyo receiver, like their Rz series, your Onkyo cannot output digital sources (such as HDMI) through the Zone 2 preouts. Only analog sources can be output through the Zone 2 preouts. Onkyo is not straightforward about this when they advertise Zone 2 capability, and none of their NR series receivers support HDMI audio on the Zone 2 preouts.
