It's not either/or.

With modern AVRs, one uses the setup menu to associate a particular video source and a particular audio source with a specific input label, e.g., "DVD player." The sources, audio and video, can usually be associated with more than one label. So, I have my cable STB video and cable STB audio associated with the input label: CABLE/SAT. I also have my cable STB video and my SACD/DVD-A player audio associated with the input label AUX-1. With this arrangement, I can watch/listen to cable TV or I can watch football and listen to music!

So, yes, A and V switch together but you can determine the combinations in use. Is that sufficiently confusing?
