I recently purchased a Yamaha A-S301 2-channel amp mainly because I wanted the optical input it offers. I use the optical input to play my Apple TV through, mainly for AirPlay audio as well as streaming Netflix, etc.
The issue I'm seeing, is when I get home for the day, if I turn on the amp before I start the audio playing through the Apple TV I get no sound from the optical channel. I have to power down the amp and power it back on again before I'll hear any sound from the speakers.
If I instead turn on the Apple TV and then start playing the music it works fine. The RCA inputs don't exhibit this behavior, however.
Do you think this is an issue with the amp itself, or could it be the way the Apple TV sends the audio signal through the optical port?
Going through the warranty process is a little bit of a pain and I wanted to exhaust my options first, so any help is much appreciated.
Thanks for reading!
