Neither approach will work. It’s not possible to simultaneously play ARC and ACE audio. It’s also not possible to use two headphones,

Does your husband use hearing aids? Depending on the TV model it is possible to send audio to Bluetooth capable hearing aids and the ARC. This may not be as straightforward as you like, but this works well for some people. Also, it may be possible to use 3rd party headphones for him — depends on the TV.

When you use the Ace for tv listening, the sound is swapped from soundbar to headphones. No sound comes from the soundbar whilst Ace is in use.

Only one set of Ace headphones is supported. You cannot both listen to tv audio simultaneously on two Aces.

You may admit that Sonos is a real failure on that aspect. Particularly the point that you can’t even use 2 headset together… why are they making offer to buy 2 pieces ? this is unfair for most people like me who naturally thought it was the way to go through the main problem, ARC + ACE … deeply disapointed.
