Confused about audio from Arc vs Beam

Our main room has an Arc/One’s/Sub where we watch on an LG Nano tv through Apple TV 4K.  While watching Hulu (Killing Eve), the app shows Stereo PCM 2.0.  I just picked up a new TV for the bedroom, LG UN73,  where we have a Beam/One’s set up.  The new TV in the bedroom plays the same show in Dolby Digital 5.1.  Both TV’s are set to Auto, the main TV is set to Passthrough from ATV, and I have switched the Apple TV back and forth from allowing Atmos and forcing DD 5.1.  

Right now, I can only see the difference being the Apple TV app, vs the LG app in the bedroom.  I am hoping someone can help me accomplish DD 5.1 out of the Arc.

Looks like Hulu still doesn’t support 5.1 audio on the Apple TV: https://help.hulu.com/s/article/sound-quality?language=en_US
