I'd forget AnyNet+ for this round.

"Disadvantages
One thing to remember when using this system is that it only works with Anynet®-equipped Samsung® products. Not all Samsung® products come with this technology. Though other electronics manufacturers also offer similar HDMI-CEC-based home entertainment networking functions, they generally do not work interchangeably. Some incompatible HDMI-CEC-based devices can disrupt Anynet+™ devices unless the function is disabled."

Just send your audio out over optical and don't use the Samsung HDMI CEC AnyNet port.

glavas, couldn't explain it any better than what R.Proffitt explained. Anynet is for Samsung devices, you may want to turn that off or as R.Proffitt suggested, use the optical output and just make sure you go into your TV's Audio settings to send the Audio through the proper output...^IFV
