No issues at all when playing BD or games, surround sound glory there, only when trying to watch cable.

Any suggestions?

It could be a problem with the software in the cable box...in my cable market here (which is Comcast) their boxes that are older than the last six months do not usually work with the HDMI connection. Sometimes they pass the video, like youre saying, but since their HDMI software is not configured for repeating devices like a receiver, it just shuts down and doesnt work at all.
