Yes, you need to select the "external speaker" setting on the TV menu. That will disable the TV speakers and output all sound to the soundbar. If that doesn't work, see if there is a stereo output connection on the TV and an input to the soundbar. On some TVs, the optical connection does not function. Also, make sure that the input setting on the soundbar matches the input that you have the cable plugged in to.
