Update; 06/18/15
Onkyo receiver was losing audio very often, usually when scrubbing around on DVR.  Even jump back 30 seconds, then the audio would be lost (just silent) for 20 seconds or more.
Suspected cable box since this Time Warner equipment is so lame, but narrowed it down to receiver.  Hooked up straight from cable box to TV and played through those speakers (bypass receiver all together).  No loss of audio.

Found this on how to reset the receiver.

Did just step one:  unplug the receiver power for 30 seconds.  Now trying same content that was causing audio loss previously, and so far so good.





Finally got around to setting up sweet sound for the new room. Here are the details.
As you can tell, got it from WOOT.
