Connecting Arc, Sky and Projector

Hi, can any bright spark suggest a solution please. I want to connect the audio from my sky box (optical) to a Sonos Arc (HDMI). The Sky is connected to an Epson TW7100 projector but I would need a wireless solution for audio. Is this doable at all? So basically, what can I plug the optical audio into something to be picked up by the Arc. Thanks in advance.

The Beam comes with optical to hdmi dongle so it’s possible to use that for Sky optical to the Arc, but it does not supply Atmos and is limited to Dolby digital and PCM stereo.
