    ATV4 11.2 beta - no surround sound

    I updates to iOS11.2 beta last night, and now I’m not getting any surround sound signal. Seemingly just 2.1 stereo. Anybody else experiencing this? A restart didn’t rectify it. It’s set to 5.1 in the audio settings.

    iPhone SE (2016) Will Apple get rid of the headphone jack on the next iPhone SE?

    I am planning to replace my iPhone 5 with an iPhone SE and I'm considering waiting for the next update coming reportedly in early 2018.

    iPhone 8/Plus 8 Plus sounds awful via Lightning Phones adapter

    So I just moved up from a 6s to an 8 Plus and absolutely love it - massive step up in overall speed, camera, battery life, etc. However, as an audio guy I'm already livid with the loss of the headphone jack.
