I was wondering if anyone knew what would cause an xbox360 to loose sound about 20 minutes into a game? I know its not the game because after the sound goes other games have no sound also. My console has an HDMI output and this is what I have always used with no issues. I did do the new dashboard update not to long ago and I've had this problem start a day or two after. If you let it cool ten minutes the sound comes back but dies again soon after. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

sounds like a hardware failure as the xbox heats up, whatever chip controls the sound is loosing contact from the motherboard, maybe open it up and try pressing on some chips and see if it comes back to life, or send it to be re-flowed or repaired. :)
