I recently purchased an Epson projector (Pro EX9240) and would like to use a firestick and get the audio to play through my landscape speakers which are currently hardwired into a Sonos amp (mono) in my basement.  Do I just need to 1) plug the HDMI firestick into an HDMI Audio Extractor, 2) connect that to the projector using an HDMI cable, 3) then use an optical audio adaptor and run an HDMI to the Amp in my basement?

Yes, this setup with an audio extractor should work.

Yes. In most cases, the HDMI audio extractor, most frequently a switch, as discussed repeatedly in the Home Theater area of the forum, would have the audio out already as optical. You would run that to the Sonos adapter that then plugs in to the Sonos HDMI-ARC port on the Amp.
