While playing a no sound channel, press the back button to return channel list (don't stop) then click on that channel again, it will play with sound.
If playing with PVR IPTV, go direct to those channels by pressing channel number while watching other channels.
The key is open no sound channels while playing another channel.
My system is CoreElec 9.2 run on TV box. I didn't check this on other systems.
I've also noticed this happening and the same solution, but also the resume function in the addon does the same thing. Starting playing a video then stop halfway through to create a resume point. Playing from that resume point plays the video just fine but there is no sound. You have to start from the beginning to get sound. I believe this is an issue with IA.
I've actually been able to work around this by editing the Sling add-on. It has to do with how the resume points are created. Once some blocks of that code are modified, sound works on all channels, every time. I can open a ticket on what I did. A PR may not be wanted since it does remove the resume point functionality... I've added what I've changed here(sling.py): https://paste.kodi.tv/hiqisucige.kodi This was done through trial-and-error so YMMV but I've been using it for months without a single issue--probably another more elegant way of fixing it.
