So the issue only seems to happen when I am using my ROKU device as a source for the TV. Actual sound bar outputs audio, nothing else. Tried every input as well. (optical, HDMI ARC, and Bluetooth). While they all function they only function partially.
Tried also my Samsung BluRay player. Everything fully works (though I was not watching anything incredible effects wise just Hogan's Heroes. But the Sub is working so I will have to assume by default the surround would work.
I have not tried it with my LG BluRay yet (and yes I have 2 BluRay players). The reason is "funny". When I got the LG player, I had put it in the cabinet with the sound system. Despite cutting away the entire back of the cabinet, the level of heat in there was so incredible it was causing the LG to "fault" during play. So not realizing the issue I bought the Samsung. It too began malfunctioning which is well how we got here
Anyway I now have 2 BluRay players.
So, now, everything seems to work except for low freq audio and surround during play from ROKU. IDK, if it is an issue with ROKU, incompatibilty of the TV to the sound system, etc. I have tried checking all the sound settings of the ROKU device, and this never happened before. Which is another reason I am scratching my head.
