It’s frustrating when you have no sound from Sony Bravia TV issues.

Slight issues like muted sound or disabled internal speakers can cause this common problem. 

It can also be caused by more serious issues like; faulty hardware or software components. Whatever it may be, the good news is that it can be fixed. 

I’ve carefully highlighted some fixes for sound issues on your Sony Bravia TV.

Why is there No Sound from Sony Bravia TV?

There is no sound from Sony Bravia TVs, usually due to a software or audio configuration issue.

• Outdated/corrupted software: if the software system of your Sony Bravia TV is outdated, it can cause a wide range of issues, including problems with the sound. Also, some malicious files or bugs can get into your TV and might affect the sound and other features.

• Faulty speakers: if the internal speakers of your Sony Bravia TV are faulty or have been connected to an external or secondary audio output, there will be no sound from the TV. This will require the speakers to be repaired or reactivate the internal speakers if they are disabled.

• Low Volume setting: if your TV has been muted, no sound will come from it. Always confirm that your speakers are not muted or reduced to the lowest volume.
