Hi All, I'm hoping someone can help with an issue that has been driving me crazy. I have a Samsung hw-q930b soundbar, which is the new 9.1.4 channel Dolby Atmos soundbar. Overall its been a fine soundbar with one major issue. Whenever I'm watching something that has a music track playing, the music is too low. I've tried every setting everything I can think of to troubleshoot.
As an example, I'm watching Thor Love and Thunder, and there is the scene where he is fighting the bird aliens and "Welcome to the jungle" is playing. All sound is at there normal levels, but the song audio is too low. This happens with all types of shows and media.
A quirk to this issue is that its almost like the music is entirely independent of the other channels. I used the Smart Things app and turned down the volume for each channel independently (Front, side, front top, wide, rear, rear top and all channels reduced but the music stayed the same volume level.
Here are my connections and devices:
TV: Samsung Q80r (2019) connected via arc
UHD Blu-Ray: Panasonic
Roku 4k
Xbox Series X
Sony PS5
Anyone experience this, or have any thoughts or solutions?
