In my quest for a workaround to the lack of AirPlay, I recently hooked up an AirPort Express to the optical port of the Wiim Ultra. I am also using the ARC port (as my primary input about 90% of the time).
Unfortunately, the “Auto-sensing of Optical In & HDMI” setting seems very finicky, particularly when both of those inputs are plugged in. I tried disabling HDMI-CEC power control, rebooted the device several times, to no avail. It doesn’t seem to be as much of an issue if only one of the inputs is plugged in. Also, manually switching inputs works fine.
I saw here that there appears to be a similar known issue with the Wiim Amp: https://faq.wiimhome.com/support/solutions/articles/72000622978-wiim-amp-known-issues
Is anyone else experiencing this issue? Or would anyone be willing to test it out on their end? Thanks so much!
