I had a similar issue for a while with my Denon AVR2113 surround--sound
receiver connected to my computer. I was able to resolve it by turning
off power management at the computer end for the HDMI port.
Bluetooth headsets for a small price and I'm imagining here you're not
wanting great quality sound, more like reasonable quality sound.
Well the Logitech H800 will give you that sound if you're just wanting
to listen through the Headset itself and not use it for chatting using
Bluetooth, when you do that the sound is absolutely disgusting by
today's standards.
I'm sure I've pointed out one of many options available.

I recently got a fourth generation Apple TV and connected it to a Samsung TV
which is connected to a Klipsch sound bar via optical cable. After some
experimentation, including switching out the cable and trying a different and
older TV to make sure the problem wasn't our newer TV, I have determined that
there is an issue with voiceover cutting out when there isn't already audio
playing through the sound bar. That is, if there is a TV show or some music or
whatever going through the Apple TV to the sound bar, and I use the included
remote or a Bluetooth keyboard to move around on the Apple TV and hear what it
is saying with voiceover, there is no problem. Voiceover does not cut out.
However, if there is no audio streaming through the sound bar from the Apple
TV, then voiceover does cut out and the first words are always missed. Someone
on an Apple related list said he had the same problem and solved it by using a
Bluetooth headset. The only Bluetooth headset I have is a single ear piece
Plantronics, probably about five years old, which I use on my iPhone when I'm
out. This guy thinks that the issue is some kind of energy saving thing in the
sound bar that doesn't kick in in time to catch the first few syllables are
words that voiceover is saying. I'm all in favor of energy savings, but
really. This is disgusting. I wonder if anybody has a Bluetooth headset
solution that won't cost very much. I have really nice Headsets, but none of
them are Bluetooth. I do not intend to buy the new ones from BMW which cost
$400. Smile.
