Loud Pop for AT&T commercials
My tv speakers will pop when switching to an AT&T branded commmercial. This happens on both the analog tv with coax connection and the digital tv with HDMI connection. The other parts of the tv shows an commercials will be at one volume, and the AT&T branded commercials will come on with a loud pop and a different volume.
I have also noticed I don't see very many Charter Communications commercials and my guess is that AT&T supercedes an undesignated and/or local block of commercial time with its U-verse commercials. Hence, the seemingly different sources from U-verse central.
Does anyone know if I am on the right track?
It is not a real problem; I am just curious.

@spazbq02 Don't hear any pops here when the ATT ads come on in the local ad section. Sometimes hear a bit of the network sent ad at the end when switching back. Never heard them in my more than 6 1/2 years on ATT Uverse HD TV/Internet.

Hi @spazbq02
Are you noticing this strange popping noise on all of your TV receivers in the home? One thing that can probably help with this is power cycling the receiver that has this issue by pressing and holding the "Power" button for 10 seconds on the front of the receiver.

Thank you MorganCS @ATTU-verseCare. In addition to the power cycling fix you mentioned I also just noticed a solution of using a non-destructive recovery as mentioned by David T in @ATTU-verseCare in response to a thread by @SheriSTL. I will try both on all receivers. Thanks.

I am experiencing the same annoying problem...a loud pop when commercials break in to the program as well as when changing channels. I am afraid it is damaging my speakers as well!
I have an original DirecTV HD satellite reciever coupled to a Samsung 3D television via a Yamaha sound system using HDMI What is the "fix"?
