SUCCESS! Confirm remove or disable pin 13 of the hdmi plug solves the problem.

I bought a cheap china hdmi cable, cracked open one end of the plug & cut the wire to pin 13. Not elegant but it works. Google for diagram of the pin location

wow good info. HYpptv STB really the culprit but i wont go that far to damage pin 13 of HDMI cable. There should be other way.

FYI a cheaper (although uglier) alternative is to get a hdmi to DVI converter and a DVI to hdmi converter. You can get both for under RM 30 on Lazada. I’m using this setup and ARC works fine now!

Wow u mean connection like below:-

TV HDMI port - hdmidvi cable - dvihdmi cable - htpptv hdmi port

TV hdmi arc - hdmi cable - 5.1 Speaker Hdmi port

Then other extra TV hdmi ports can connect to ps4, Astro, xbox, android box

And all sound including TV sound will go to that 5.2 Speaker right?

Good find!
