HT-BD1250 Home Theater problem

I saw the following "review" at the samsung web site for the HT-BD1250T. I have a similar symptom, although I don't know if it is the same cause as claimed (Dolby). My TV cable box feeds optical digital signal directly to the HT-BD1250. When watching TV, during commercials, the sound volume drops to a level that makes them it almost impossible to hear. The volume must be set from about 10 during normal programing, to about 20+ to hear the commercials. I don't know if it is a "Dolby" issue or not.

I too have sound cut outs. During a 2 hour movie that is being played from my Cable-box/DVR, the sound might cut out 2 times for about 1 to 3 seconds each time.

Can you help explain this? Also, how would the person know that the signal is Dolby or not? Is there a display on the HT-BD1250 that identifies the signal?

Someone else's review found at Samsung: The biggest issue is the sound variance between shows broadcast in Dolby and those that are not. If we are watching a show with Dolby and it goes to a show not in Dolby the sound volume is so low as to be inaudible - if we are watching a non-Dolby show we have to crank up the volume to hear it and then get blasted out of the room when a Dolby broadcast comes on. We also have numerous sound cut-outs etc.
