My Playstation 3 is connected to the home theater via optical–How to get sound from the TV when HT is off?

Dude in Montreal asked:


My PS3 is connected to the home theater via optical therefore everytime I want to play with the audio on I have to turn on the home theater which is somewhat annoying. Is there a way to get regular sound from the TV when the Home Theater is off? The PS3 Output Settings option only allows me to choose ONE connector. Thanks in advance.

   I’m pretty sure you don’t have that option but, I mean doesn’t your HT have a remote? Why go through the tv when you have the HT? Sounds a hundred times better.
