After downloading the Pandora app this morning, the app plays one song then the 2nd song comes up. The equalizer, in the upper left hand corner, moves as if music is playing but there's no sound. The timer at the bottom is at zero on both sides. I've uninstalled it, re-installed it, rebooted my modem-router, exited the app, turned off the TV and I' still having the same issue. What more can I do? Thanks.
What has solved my Samsung Smart Tv problem was going to Settings > Network > Expert Settings > and turning off the IPv6 button. Whew...it took me almost all day to figure that out!!!
No sound
Samsung - 55" Class Q80T Series LED 4K UHD Smart Tizen TV
ATT BGW210 Modem/Router
ATT is my service provider
Sound was working fine until a few weeks ago. Video shows that song is clearly playing, but no sound
Using wifi connection to tv
I'm using an ethernet cable to my internet modem. Pandora still working.
Got to expert settings and saw no such button. Software date is 2016. I hit the sound reset button to return to factory settings since the no sound issue arose a few weeks ago. Still no sound.
This is getting truly ridiculous! The scope of this problem is obviously large and widespread. Instead of a community of pissed off people, why are we not getting direct answers from Pandora's IT people??
Tanner,
Something dramatically changed with the operating software at Pandora and/or Samsung within the last 3 to 10 weeks. Why is neither party forthcoming with operating software changes that were made this summer! The problem seems to be identical and spread across many, many Samsung sets, regardless of internet provider, wifi vs ethernet, and modem/router equipment. A short while ago I did the same thing I did the other day: opened the app on my tv, and it played ONE song, with sound, from start to finish. I soon as that song finished, the no-sound issue immediately took hold. I will ask the question again, why doesn't Pandora and/or Samsung step forward to acknowledge the operating software change made this summer, and why they don't debug it. Is there a conflict between the parent companies we are not being told about, such as happens between individual cable channels and cable/streaming providers? Very, very strange that I can open the app once a day, and listen to one song all the way through, then kaput. Looks like this is purposely programmed to happen.
Got to expert settings and then could find no such button (IPv6)
I've got the exact same problem. Every day I open the app, it plays one song from start to finish, WITH sound, pause, next song comes up which starts playing WITHOUT sound. From there on out, regardless of song or station, no audio. So it is clearly a firmware / software problem residing with Pandora and/or Samsung. This all started apparently in late June or early July. Also, the problem is a widespread one, and exists regardless of TV age or model number, router/modem age or model, wifi or ethernet, and ISP. For Pandora to market and accept new paid subscriptions without being able to provide the service, is unconscionable. This has gone on for three months now, and no solution on the horizon.
Hi @mpurc!
I am having the same problem. Pandora worked fine on my Samsung Smart TV until 3 weeks ago. Nothing is fixing the problem. So the only thing that could have changed was an auto software update. I don’t even know whether it updated
Tanner,
Just reloaded everything after the all clear message. One song played and then nothing. My equipment is:
Samsung TV - QN43Q60RAFXZA
Technicolor Modem - CGM4231MDC
Internet - Mediacom

At around the same tome the TV started having problems my older iphone started having the same problem. Are other users having problems with their older iPhones too? Thx
Hi, I am having the same issues outlined in this post, which started about 2 days ago. I looked around on my TV for the suggestions given and tried what was suggested but none helped. I then reloaded the app on my Samsung TV and it sort of worked for a few songs but eventually it stopped working. Then I deleted the Pandora app, cycled the power to the TV and then added the pandora app, which resulted in the app not playing at all = the equalizer bar at the top is jumping around but no music and the time tic info at the bottom is not moving.
All other apps on the TV work = Netflix , youtube, youtube TV, Hulu,....
I will work with Samsung or anyone to resolve the issue
I have the following TV:
Samsung
Model # QN82Q80RAF
Type # QN82Q80RA
Version FA01/QRQ80
Hardwired ethernet
