When this guide applies

Exact WiiM Amp Pro. Existing verified TOSLINK connection and output route; planned comparison with acceptable source-format change. Only normal external user controls; no mains modification, chassis opening, reset or firmware installation.

Connection scope: Optical digital audio. Symptom: There is no playback sound.

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 scope. Follow the link that matches what you actually observe. Alternative branches are not a single sequence of actions.
