If HDMI fails to "handshake" the port may not work until the devices are powered down and get a fresh start. There can be issues with older HDMI cords so only the newer tech would fail to pack a shiny new 1.4 or later spec cord with them. AmazonBasics are under 9 bucks so said tech does not have a reason to not carry it with them.
So, power it all off, disconnect it all, remove the AC power cord, go have some coffee/tea/water and then try again but DO NOT plug in anything but what you want to work.
