I have the same GPS - the only option that works is the Other Cable NMEA GPS option, baud rate I leave as 4800 and then i think it is the Generic CF option but this only appears to select if you have the GPS connected. Then leave it for 30 seconds and it should start looking for a signal.

But be aware that the reception using TTN5 is worse than using TTN3. I am hoping a fix will appear soon - feel free to raise it with tomtom (the more of us that do - the greater the chance of them fixing it)
