You need to enable the optical out from the xbox in the menu so the avr will "See" a signal and make sure you set it to bitstream for 5.1.

Optical Problem with AVR 430 HK
Hi,
I have a HK AVR 430. I have connected my HDTV optical out to Optical 1 in and set the input to DVD/OPT 1. That works! I then run a second optical cable from the xbox360 out to Optical 2. Then I switch to video 1, try to set optical to OPT 2 and it says UNLOCK, and there is no sound from the xbox.
Why can't I use two optical cable in?
I have tried other video settings: 2,3,4,CD but it is all the same.
I did connect xbox rca to the TV, so if I pick OPT 1 it works but then it is not 5.1
I want 5.1 from the TV and the xbox. Any solution?
Thank you.
