5-10 second delay when turning on TV

Hey all. I have a WiiM Amp with some Q1 Metas and a SB 1000 plugged into an LG C2 as a 2.1 setup.

When I start something with audio on the TV (game, movie, YouTube, song) the audio takes 5-10 seconds to kick on.

I have the WiiM amp set to never sleep. Auto sensing of HDMI is ON, group delay is set to low. I even turned on the startup sound for my tv to “wake” up the amp when the TV kicks on. It still seems to take forever to realize there’s audio playing.

Any ideas on how to fix this?
