Sound from TV.

Got an odd problem.

Sound from TV goes to an external setup via Toslink, and the volume can't
be adjusted on the TV - ie a proper line out. TV set speakers switched off.

Have a BT STB (Humax) fed to the TV by HDMI. The volume on that can be
adjusted by the remote in the normal way.

Set both to an SD channel - say BBC1 - and adjust the level from the STB
so it matches the TV when you switch between them. STB says 85 on the
screen.

Now change them both to the same HD channel, say BBC1 again. STB is now,
I'd guess, 6dB louder than the TV on the same channel - enough to annoy.
To make it match has to be reduced to 75.

And all that before any transmitted differences in level between SD and
HD. ;-)

Both TV and STB are set to stereo - and no strange balance from one which
would indicate it might be two channels from 5.1 or whatever.

Seems to exhibit the same behaviour between HD and SD on all channels.
