Really need help with samsung PS51D450 sound setup

over2ubob · 11-11-2011, 17:02

Hi all. I have just purchased a Samsung PS51D450, for my mother. She has very bad eyesight hence the large screen, she also is partially def. My problem is I have installed a loop system in the room for use with her hearing aid. Connection from the tv to the loop amplifier is through 3.5mm audio jack. This system is in use in another room, simply plug the jack into the earphone socket and that's it. The problem I am having here is when I plug in the lead for the amplifier into the headphone socket the speakers on the tv turn off. This is a problem as my father does require sound from the tv speakers. So i am stuck at the moment. does anyone know if there is a way to keep the main speakers active while the headphone socket is in use. Any help would be very very much appreciated.Thank you in advance.

Normally that's how it works. There may be a setting in the setup to keep the speakers enabled but I doubt it.

Something like that would do it for a reasonable cost.
