Goes to snow when changing channels

Often goes to a snowy pic when changing channels on DirecTv, HR44/500 receiver, (using HDMI).  Found that changing to a different HDMI input on the TV (Sharp) then back to Directv fixes the problem.  Seems to be related to the HDMI handshake between the TV and the DirecTv receiver.
