turn your telly and sky box off .. and unplug your sky box ... for a couple of minutes and then plug it back in, turn it all back on ... that should work. Its done it to me a couple of times ..

Thanks already done that, it was working Ok at 1800, switched every thing off and went out to garden, when I came back in thats when it did'nt work, checked all the settings on the sky box cables the lot, every thing else is Ok just no sound, if it was the down lead it would affect picture as well.

Have you tried turning the sound up on your telly? ;)

Mine is working fine. I can't see it being a Sky issue which just affects you. Have you accidently muted your box?

Tried all those settings, all was OK, unplugged the dammed thing gave it a good coat of looking at, shook it a couple of times, plugged every thing back together, just in time to catch an advert that sky are upgrading and all paying customers will be getting a new card.

I find that scarts can lose sound before they lose picture if slightly loose.

All working fine here BTW.

Ha bluudy Ha.
A bit late wi yur advice, its 8 days since.
I swore at the wife and kicked the dog.
Maybe that cured it or just unplugging things
helped as Ian said about scart plugs.

just never get the order of things mixed up

your wife may forgive swearing at her but a kick may get you killed lol
 
I also usually find that this particular fault is because the SCART lead needs pushing into the socket properly.

I suppose you use HMDI, so would I if the dammed sky box had a socket, recorder & tele has, but I'm waiting till the new transmissions come on line later this year. Then I can test the quality of recordings, or just switch over to FreeSat. Got two spare sockets on the dish.
