H96 pro 4k problem with amp

Apologies if this isn’t the right section

Based on s912 chipset & andriod 6

I have Sony tv and Sony amp connected

When I shutdown the box and switch over to the satellite it some how messes with the amp and says ” Audio systems communications failure TV speakers active” if I switch the andriod box back on whilst watching satellite the audio system comes back on and says “audio system active”..

So obviously the box itself is sending some command to the amp..I have tried the hdmi cec settings on the andriod on and off and no difference..

Any suggestions?!
