I’ve just had a new Sony Bravia and I’ve finished setting it up with my Playbar and 2 x Sonos One (Gen 2).
I’d spoken to a rep at the place I bought the TV from and they assured me that I could use my setup as surround sound, which I had been unable to do on my previous TV. I have the Playbar is plugged in via the Optical port and the Sonos One’s are setup in the room as the surrounds. I’ve setup all audio settings on my TV and Sky Q box to Dolby Digital but I’m still struggling to get the audio I was expecting. I read online that all TV channels don’t necessarily output DD5.1 but I’d have expected Sky Cinema and Sky Sports among other channels would output as DD5.1. I’ve cycled around some channels and check in my Sonos app and I can see the audio on my Playbar is only Stereo 2.0.
The model number of my new TV is KD-49XG8396BU.
I’d really appreciate some advice.
