Occasional while flash on the bottom half of the screen on the home page / occasional sound cut-out as well on the home page. When a game is played no flashing or sound cut-out occurs. I have 2 HDMI ports in my LG TV, so i tried switching the ports to see if that would make a difference: it didn't. Just got the PS3 the other day. Had an XboX360 before that didn't have a problem with sound / video.
The PS3 has an issue with what's called the "HDMI handshake" between the PS3 and the TV. The PS3 does not even realise that this is happening. What you might try to do is turn the system on, play a game, and when the flashing and no sound occurs, unplug the HDMI cable from your PS3, wait a few seconds and plug it back in. This may resolve your issue. If it doesn't work, try component cables, there is no known issue with this problem occuring with this type of connection. Good luck!
