So, my dad recently gave me an old Nikko amplifier that he used when he was younger in order to put it in my bedroom and have something like a mini home theater! I hooked it up to my TV (22 inch Philips) and it sounds perfect! I have my PS4 connected to my TV as well with an HDMI cable and it sounds awesome but I have a problem with my PS3. You see, my tv has only one HDMI input so I plug in my PS4 when I want to play with it and my PS3 when I want to play with that, but the sound of the PS3 only comes out through my TV's speakers and not through the speakers I have connected to the amplifier!

 

Does anyone know why this happens and how I can fix it? It works perfectly fine with my PS4!!!

sorry, I can only help with poetry based issues

Perhaps you need to go to 'Sound Settings' -> 'Audio Output Settings' to adjust the audio playback in your PS3.

I've tried everything in the Sound Settings menu but nothing happened!! 

Get an HDMI switch.  We have one that currently is hooked up to the Wii U and Blu Ray player with no problems.

Thee is no problem with the HDMI cables and I don't mind unplugging the PS4's HDMI cable and plugging the PS3's one and vice versa (I will get a new TV with more than 1 HDMI inputs soon anyway). The problem is that that although the PS4 sounds perfectly fine through the amplifier's speakers the PS3 does not!! It sounds only through the TV's speakers!
