All new HDMI 48gbps cables. However when go to Audio Format on the Apple TV and turn on Change Format and set it to Dolby Digital 51 sound comes to the Arc as Dolby Digital 51. The set up will play Atmos and Dolby 51 from the TVs web OS but while using Apple TV it only plays stereo or Atmos it wont play 51.

I do get sound using my Roku Ultra and the internal Smart apps on the LG. Ive found two scenarios. The current Apple TV has no provision for separate audio output other than AirPlay.

All modern Sonos speakers can do AirPlay but only their soundbars are designed to connect to a TV using HDMI. The good news is if you have an optical audio port on your television your Apple TV apps and video can still take advantage of your Sonos system. However on that same Apple TV setting Dolby Digital 51 content comes to the Sonos Arc as Stereo 20.

I have a LG B9 hooked up through HDMI with a sonos Arc sound bar that is paired to two surrounds through a Sonos Amp. In the settings on the Apple TV 4k there is not option to set the SONOS speakers as default. Atmos works on the Xbox and on the built in apps on the TV.

Up to 1 cash back Turn a medium or large room into your smart home theater with Beam the dynamic soundbar with voice control plus an easy-to-install wall mount from Sonos. I set the audio output to DTS neo 25 which gives me a virtualized 51 surround sound regardless what the audio input format is.

Did all the usual cable input swaps etc etc. Once youve set up Sonos with your TVs primary remote the Apple TV remote should start to control the Sonos volume automatically. We dont recommend using the Apple TV remote when setting up a Sonos home theater product since Sonos may need to learn and receive a mute command which is not an available button on the Apple TV remote.

Attach Arc to any wall for a clean look that matches your style.
