Beam audio delay

Hi
I recently bought a beam, and am experiencing the well documented lip sync issues when passing Sky Dolby digital feed through my Phillips TV. Switching to "normal" solves the issue of course.
So Im looking to bypass the TV processing for the audio, which seems to be the culprit.
What is the best way to connect the Sky Q and a PS4 audio to the beam?. I originally hoped a simple 2 to 1 optical splitter would do it but it seems the orientation of the Sonos optical adapter won't allow for it.
Any advice and product links appreciated.

I’m not sure if something like this would work for you, but worth researching further perhaps?
