since u connected ur astro to TV via HDMI... meanings that astro's audio carried into TV...
what u need to do is carry the audio from TV to your samsung...

check your rear of your TV, there have "Audio Out" (should be RCA) of your Sony and connect to "AUX In Jack" of your samsung (should be RCA)...

so just get any "RCA to RCA" cable will do...
but dont expect good audio quality provided from TV since audio from astro filtered by TV...

Thanks bro for the advice but i've read somewhere the sound will be lagging since it travels from astro to tv and to ht..

analog signalling wont lag much, usually the audio will blur due to poor audio processing by TV...

otherwise u need a current AV receiver which can accept HDMI IN (from astro) and HDMI OUT (to TV), so audio will carry to AV receiver's speaker and video will carry to TV... with this AV receiver, u also can connect your PS3's HDMI into it too... so AV receiver will used as "centralized"

that is the problem for common HTS doesnt come with HDMI IN...

so i guess the only choices is connect ur TV and HT via RCA-RCA cable since your samsung only can support 2 audio input (optical & RCA)... but dont expect much about the quality...

if u want good audio quality from astro, then is time for u to get proper AV receiver such as pioneer VSX-520 or onkyo HT-S3300

When i select AUX mode, the sound comes out from the HT systems when i watch Astro. But now how do i want to hear Dolby surround from Astro Beyound which i can select the setting at the menu but obviously no sound will comes out from my HT systems since i'm using the RCA cable.

AUX (stereo) is analog signal, dolby is digital signal...
unless ur TV have the capabilities to downmix from 5.1/7.1 to stereo then different sotry...
