I tried all your fixes but they do not restore the sound on my tv ? Tried virtual, didn't work either, tried rebooting didn't work either? do I need a new remote? Very odd that the sound just stopped on its own while watching tv ?

Good Day & Welcome.
Thank you for posting your question. This is a peer-to-peer website. We do not have access to your equipment records.
We would like to assist you. In order to do so, we need for you to tell us more.
Can you please provide us with a few more details so that we can better answer your question?
- Which Bell TV service do you subscribe to? Fibe TV, Fibe TV App or Satellite TV
- Which model of Bell TV receiver is connected to your TV?
- Which remote control are you experiencing the issue with? Is it an IR remote? E.g. Bell Bluetooth or Slim remote, Bell Streamer, Voice Remote with Google Assistant, etc.
Before going out and replacing your remote control, have you tried to do any troubleshooting?
Please refer to the following web link for further troubleshooting remote control issues. Programming, fixing or replacing your Bell Fibe TV remote
Are you using a Bell Streamer remote? If so, please check out this article Help with the Bell Streamer remote : Pairing the remote using Bluetooth
If you have no audio, the issue is usually related to volume settings, HDMI cables, or device syncing.
- Ensure both your receiver or streaming device and TV are not muted, and the volume is turned up using the respective remotes.
- Have you tried changing the batteries? This might fix the issue if the remote is unresponsive or low on battery
- Have you rebooted your device? If not, unplug the power cable from your receiver or device, wait at least 10 seconds, and plug it back in.
- Ensure the HDMI cable connecting your device to your TV is securely plugged in and is not damaged. If unsure, change the HDMI cable to see if this makes a difference.
- Check your audio settings & change the format on your device and TV to see if that makes a difference. Depending on your device this will be located in Settings.
- Reset your remote control to factory settings & then reprogram your remote.
Is your remote control less than a year old? If you have never ordered a new remote, the warranty period would start from the date you received your receiver. If your remote is no longer under warranty, you can order a replacement from Bell online at the following links:
Bell Fibe TV - Equipment - Remotes
Remotes | Fibe TV | Bell Canada
Bell Satellite TV - Equipment - Remotes
Remotes - Satellite TV | Bell Canada
For further assistance, please call Bell Fibe TV Tech Support at: 1 866 797 8686 or call Bell Satellite TV Tech Support at: 1 888 759-3474
Let us know if you need further assistance.
Take care.
