ChromeCast ultra => Philips Hue Sync => Bravia TV.

If you still read this post, did you find a solution?
I'm thinking of moving the 976 as a pure sound system like:

ChromeCast ultra => Philips Hue Sync => Bravia TV => 976 through ARC

has anyone tried swapping the HDMI ends or the cables themselves?

eg Oppo ->976 = cable A; the other is cable B. Switch A for B.

Maybe Oppo -> splitter -> TV? If it works trouble-free, connect the 976 to the other port and you’re done😊
