What is the receiver model? What surround sound speaker? What TV speaker? 

How is the receiver or TV connected to the surround sound speaker?

buzzing is usually caused by a grounding problem.  Try powering the genie client from a different circuit.

It's actually a receiver (Yahama AV Receiver) It's connected to the tv. Used to be able to hear from the genie (not 2).  I also connected the AV/Out on the back of the genie 2 mini to the receiver - now I get sound with a buzzing noise
