The defect is likely a sensitive component to over voltage (lightning) on the main power supply. But you should not exclude other boards too, since ohter board also have local power supplies and sensitive CMOS integrated circuits. Check all MOSFET transistors on the the main power supply, since they are the most sensitives. Also the regulator IC to control the PWM sent to the MOSFET is made of CMOS (sensitive). Then check all the diodes even if they are more robust to lightning. There is a MOV that absorb the lightning that could be shorted but in your case it seems to have survived.
Check the speaker/s first. If found OK; check and replace the damaged component/s at its audio output section circuit board. If needy, replace this board as card basis.

Contact Toshiba support by phone (look in your owner's manual for the toll free number). They issued new firmware last week to fix several HDMI audio and video problems. They will send it to your home with easy to follow instructions. I hope this helps.
Hello
Your flat panel TVs picture tube base board has soldering loose contact with it. Just unplug your TV from AC mains socket, and open it. Pull out the picture tube base card from the picture tube neck. Pull it out straight, no shake must be there, as it will damage its connecting pins.
Normally, loose sodering are very difficult to loacate, as they will be quite micrscopic in size. Just resolder all the suspected loose sodering point on that board, by applying a little more solder. This will solve your TVs problem. OK.
Two issues here: one is if mirror broke and fell forward into screen the marks are permanent.Changing the mirror involves getting entire front of set apart and off--a lot of screws from rear and inside the set---to see what is involved you might want to TRY to search for the service manual for this set---I have done this before and it takes time and care---mirror will be over 100 plus shipping---might want to GOOGLE the model with "mirror"
No but there should be a Red and White component audio out. If you go to an electronics store they should be able to sell you a Component audio male (one red one white plug) on one end and a headphone jack on the other so you can plug your headphone into that shouldn't cost more than 10 dollars tops.
This is a known issue with this TV. The following might resolve it:
Check Mute and Volume:
Ensure that the TV is not muted and that the volume is set appropriately. Sometimes accidental button presses can lead to muted sound or low volume.
Inspect External Speakers:
If you're using external speakers, verify their connections. Loose cables or faulty speakers can cause sound issues.
Test Different Inputs:
Connect a non-HDMI device (such as a DVD player) to the TV. Observe if the sound distortion occurs. If it doesn't, the problem might be related to the HDMI signal from your Virgin box.
HDMI Troubleshooting:
If the issue persists with the DVD player over HDMI, consider the following:
HDMI Cable: Check the HDMI cable for damage or loose connections.
Virgin Signal: Contact Virgin to inspect the signal/lines and replace the box if necessary.
Mainboard Replacement (if needed):
If the sound distortion persists, it could be due to a faulty sound processor chip on the TV's mainboard. In this case, consider replacing the mainboard.

There may be loose contact or track open in main board.So try to check the main board thoroughly where you may find the loose of connection or track open.
Locate the Battery Cover: Look for the battery cover on the back of the remote control. It is usually a small compartment that can be easily opened.
Remove the Battery Cover: Depending on the design, there may be a latch, screw, or sliding mechanism to secure the battery cover. Use your fingers or a small screwdriver to open the compartment.
Remove Old Batteries: Take out the old batteries from the battery compartment. Pay attention to the orientation of the batteries, so you know how to insert the new ones correctly.
Check Battery Polarity: Take note of the positive (+) and negative (-) signs inside the battery compartment. Make sure to insert the new batteries with the correct polarity to match these markings.
Insert New Batteries: Place the new batteries into the battery compartment, ensuring they are properly aligned with the correct polarity. Press them down gently to make sure they are secure.
Replace Battery Cover: After inserting the new batteries, close the battery compartment cover securely. If it has a latch or screw, make sure it is fastened properly.
Test the Remote: Point the remote at the device it controls (such as a Toshiba TV) and test whether it responds to your commands. If the remote is working correctly, you have successfully replaced the batteries.
Dispose of Old Batteries: If the old batteries are no longer usable, make sure to dispose of them properly. Many communities have designated recycling locations for batteries.
