While watching TV, an echo can sometimes happen because TV speakers are playing sound instantly, while the Auracast™ broadcast that is coming through your hearing aids has a small delay. When played together, the timing difference creates an echo.

Things to try

  1. Lower the world volume – In your Fortell companion app, lower the world volume so less of the TV speaker volume will come through.

    Fortell app — Home screen with the World Volume slider lowered below the Samsung TV broadcast card
  2. Lower the TV volume – Reduce the TV volume and increase your hearing aid volume.

  3. Check your TV audio settings – Look for audio delay / AV sync and adjust it to see if that helps the echo.

  4. Turn off your TV speakers – If no one else is listening in the same room as you, turn off the TV speakers and listen solely through your hearing aids.

  5. Restart the TV – Restart your TV and transmitter if nothing else helps.
