To control the audio:
Turn on the TV and the digital audio device.

menu.
Highlight AUDIO SETUP and press ENTER.
In the OPTICAL OUTPUT FORMAT field, select either
DOLBY DIGITAL or PCM, depending on your device (see
"Selecting the optical audio output format" on page 81).
Turn off the TV's built-in speakers in the same AUDIO SETUP
menu (above). Also see "Turning off the built-in speakers" on
page 81.
