ChicagoDog describes trying to choose whether to (a) use the TV as the hub, with audio output from that going to the MX-122; or (b) use the MX-122 as the hub, with video output going to the TV.

One potential drawback to configuration (a) is that high resolution audio (Atmos, DTS-HD MA, TrueHD) from sources may be downcoded when passing through the TV. The ability of a TV to pass these over ARC will be included in HDMI 2.1. Your current source devices may not be outputting much high-resolution audio today, but this may be more common over streaming in the future and will certainly be an issue if you replace the DVD with a BluRay player.
