Pandora - No Audio

[GerryNOP]

Replaced my original Hopper with a Hopper 3 today. I told the the tech that one major annoyance of the old Hopper was that Pandora didn't have any audio. As he was installing the new equipment, I brought up Pandora and there was audio. Great, I thought. Now that the tech is gone, we're back to no audio coming from Pandora. I don't get it. Where did it go?

No audio at all on Pandora is not an issue that has been widely reported at this time.

Are you connected through a soundbar or surround sound system?

[GerryNOP]

All sound goes through a Yamaha AV receiver. The weird thing is the brief time it worked during installation.

Do you still have issues if the sound only goes through your TV?

[GerryNOP]

I haven't rewired the TV to get the sound directly yet, but here's what I observed today. When I went to Pandora, a song was playing with audio. But the next song, no audio. I scrolled through my 8 stations about 5 times, trying a song each time. 3 times I got sound (out of 40 tries), but it kicked in about 7 seconds into the song, never at the very beginning. The song then skipped ahead to the end (known issue), but the next song never had audio. So I am getting sound through the receiver, but all looks so random. Some "songs" played all the way through, but with no audio.

In addition to the Pandora problem, I get no audio from Home Media, either. MP3's or videos.
