Verizon/Motorola QIP7232 box problem

Posted by The Duke on February 3, 2013 at 08:02:21:
Just got Verizon FIOS service. I have a 2 channel setup only. When I set the stb digital audio output to two channel (as opposed to mono or surround choices), my Benchmark DAC1 will not accept the signal.

By experimentation, I "solved" the problem by running the toslink cable from the tv's digital output to the Benchmark. It works. the stb feeds the tv by HDMI cable.

Anyone else have this problem? If the stb has an audio output format choice then why wouldn't the Benchmark accept it directly?

Any ideas? Paging Joe Murphy Jr.
