Question: Are those jacks on the TV faceplate or are they on a wall plate near the TV?
Reason and true story: On my main TV they are on the TV, but there are also a bunch of jacks on the back for assorted types of input including another copy of the A/V Line in (Red/White/Yellow) and also a set of output jacks.
Well... I could not get it to work with Line in from the rear, worked fine from the front but not from the rear.. Finally I accessed the rear of the TV and this is what I found

X means there was a cable plugged in.. I think you can see how I fixed it.
What does this mean for you? Are you sure the wall plate jacks are connected to the TV?

If like me you have a "home Theater".
IF I play a source via the FRONT jacks, the TV does it all
But if I play via the factory REAR inputs (I got to fix that one of these days) the show goes first to the Home Theater and THEN on to the TV So I have to have it on as well.
