Bad cables are something that should always be checked first ... also, many people do not push the HDMI end into the jack all the way.
HDMI cable is different than an Ethernet cable ... HDMI is a slender narrow metal end, which carries audio and video , while the Ethernet cable has a smaller box type end, usually plastic with a lock tab on it, which locks in place and should be pressed first before trying to pull out of the jack. .... Ethernet cable carries the Internet/Network feed.
Many Ethernet cables go bad from people just yanking them out.
Out of interest does the power source matter? I have been watching a number of different apps and had this issue. But my FireStick is powered via the TV. Lack of power causing a drop audio stream??

My Fire Stick sound is frequently cutting out. I turned on the subtitles so I wouldn't miss anything and the problem stopped.

Turning dobie digital off fixed issue!
Just turned the fire stick settings to stereo, no more audio dropouts. Hope all can fix it this easily. Good luck.
Two things... don't use the USB port on a TV for power.
and
Why are people switching to stereo in their sound settings? My Fire TV 4K has an option called BEST AVAILABLE. Why not use that?
