Connect the audio "out" on the TV to the audio "in" on your surround sound receiver if you only have standard RCA connections. Or, if you have optical cable connections, use the digital audio "out" on the TV to the receiver's digital "in". Then make sure you select the proper input on the receiver to access that audio input. Your HDMI cable carries both audio and video signals to the TV. You can "tap into" the audio via the optical out on the TV.
