Unfortunately, the seller does not write that the output of the audio signal extremely dependent on the playback device. That is, if the playback device (eg TV) only stereo speaks, speaks of HDMI Switch only stereo. On the other hand speaks of the analog output only noise when the output via TOS link is digital. There is a lack of an active sound processing in Switch (but not promised). In my configuration (Input: Media Player, Blue Ray, HD-SAT; Output: Home Cinema, DVBT TV with headphones), the problem was solved as follows: HDMI Switch output 1 is connected to home cinema entrance HDMI Switch output 2 is connected to TV input 2 Home Cinema output connected to TV input 1. Thus it can be played back via the analog and digital Home Cinema and analog TV and headphones by selecting the corresponding inputs and outputs the sound. Incidentally, I was with an almost twice as expensive 4x1 HDMI switch, the problem did not solve, since here the playback device via HDMI controls the other devices. Disturbing is the remote control of the 4x2 HDMI switch, there is no overlap, the signals with other components. That's why I have the IR receiver easily taped and turn by hand.
