Follow these checks in Audio Fix →When this guide applies
Known first-ever pairing with no saved source or active listening to preserve.
Connection scope: Bluetooth. Symptom: My devices won’t pair or reconnect.
This is a documented check, not a diagnosis of your equipment. The model name does not confirm the selected input, mode, software or connected partner.
If your exact model or a required setting is unknown, use the “I don’t know” branch below. Do not apply a similarly named model’s instructions.
Checks and possible outcomes
Start at step-0. Follow the link that matches what you actually observe. Alternative branches are not a single sequence of actions.
step-0
Is this the first source pairing, with no saved source history to preserve?
Unknown pairing memory or a previous reset stops rather than deletes devices.
Look for: Confirm the stated setup or observation. Unknown stops safely.
- If Yes / confirmed → Is the compatible BRAVIA Connect app already controlling this exact soundbar?
- If No / cannot confirm → Stop and retain the actual observations
- If I do not know / cannot check → A required fact is unknown

- If No / cannot confirm → Stop and retain the actual observations
- If I do not know / cannot check → A required fact is unknown
