Modern TV's and especially 'Smart' TV's take some time to boot.
I always turn the TV on first and then the HDR-1000S a few seconds later (about 5). If I do not do this the TV misses the HDMI handshake to select resolution etc.

Point taken, as one of my TVs takes a while to boot up, so allowing for this each time still results in the error occurring.Again it's an intermittent fault, so difficult to pin down.

Same problem with my Humax HDR 1100s, all of a sudden the HDMI connection now gives a pink screen with no sound. Terribly frustrating as it wasn't a cheap unit.

Having to resort to analogue connection now (which itself is causing the picture to randomly change the aspect ratio every few minutes for a split second)

I wish there there more Freesat box manufacturers out there to choose from.

Most probably a cable problem or cable seating problem.
If a HD channel was active - does changing the Homax's sound output to stereo solve the soubngd problem? (if it was set to multi channel).
