Is your laptop even capable of producing surround sound to pass through to the TV? If not then that might be part of the problem.

I have hdmi from laptop to tv. Can stream Netflix with the sound coming thru the tv. The Sony receiver does not have a hdmi jack. The laptop is a Lenovo B570. I am thinking I am missing a connection between tv and receiver. Would a audio fiber optic cable from tv to receiver work since I cant go hdmi to receiver. Without the laptop connected t.v.and surround sound work great

I would give the optical a try personally.
