Hello
I just bought a Sharp TV.
When I plug in my headphones, the sound from the television is muted.
I consulted your answer from 2013, but my device does not have a SCART socket.
Is there a solution to my problem?
Thank you for your help.

Hello,
And if you could give us the complete reference of your TV?
Another question, is your headset wireless (with its own amplification and volume control) or a simple passive wired headset (not amplified)?

This TV has a digital optical audio output:
And I need to answer my other question regarding the type of headphones, wired or wireless?

So you just need to buy a DAC (Digital to Analog Converter, in French convertisseur de numérique à analogique).
This for example:

Connections:
The converter to the TV with the supplied optical cable
Your headphones to the converter (jack or RCA output)
You also need to power the converter with 5 volts (mains USB charger or via a USB port on the TV)
