Default NO PS3 center channel audio .... help?

Below are my input diagrams ...

I have tried everything I could think of thus far ...
I cannot get sound from the center channel FROM the PS3 blu ray movies or games.
I CAN get sound from the center channel with the HT DVD and DVR/Cable box.

I have connected the digi opti from the PS3 into the HT as per Samsung instructions - NO sound at all from HT system.

I connected the PS3 digi opti INTO the LCD TV - sound from surround speakers - NO sound from center channel.

I tried 2 different digi opti cables - same result.

I changed audio output setting within the PS3 - same result.

I also went OUT of the TV and INTO the HT digi opti input.


DVR is connected to TV via HDMI 1

PS3 is connected to TV via HDMI 2

HT is connected to TV via HDMI 3


Since HDMI carries audio AND video signals ....
Why wont the PS3 audio come thru the center channel? (with or without digi opti cable)

(I had a cheap old KOSS HT system with 2 coax dig out and 1 digi opti - PS3 worked GREAT with it.)

Where am I missing something?

Is there an optimal setup for this NEW equipment that is eluding me?

Sony PS3 has only 1 HDMI out and 1 digi opti out.

Samsung HT-TZ512T Home Theater System


Samsung LN-T4061F 40" 1080P LCD


Comcast Motorola DCH3416 HD DVR
