I'm having some problems with the sound on my Akai PT5598HDIX TV. I followed the rather disappointing manual as closly as I could but cannot get the TV volume control to regulate the volume on the stereo I have hooked up to it. According to the manual, I should be able to do this. I also had a problem when I used an SVideo cable from my DVD player. I lost all sound. I tried every combination I could think of but nothing brought back the sound until I hooded up the old RCA cables. I did notice an increase in picture quality with the SVideo cable and would like to continue to use it; but not at the cost of the sound. Any ideas....anyone??

There should be a code to enable the TV remote to operate the stereo. I know you said the owners manual is disappointing, but if they say you can, then they surely must tell you how.

S-Video cables carry video only, not sound. The audio has to travel on different wires.
