Connecting Projector with 3.5mm audio out to Beam


I recently purchased Sonos Beam with 2 Sonos One. I have successfully connected to my TV, however i am facing problem connecting to my projector.

My projector (XGIMI Aurora) has 1 HDMI input where i plug my Firetv or Android TV Box.
Audio Out is either through Projector speaker or 3.5 mm jack or bluetooth.

Can you please let me know, how do i get audio out to my sonos.
 

Many Thanks for your help

    Hi 

    You need devices similar to the ones in the links.  Connections are:

    Device in First Link

    1. FireTV HDMI to HDMI Input
    2. Android TV HDMI to HDMI Input
    3. You’ll have 1 extra HDMI Input
    4.  Optical Out to Beam with Sonos One’s as surrounds

    Device in Second Link

    1. HDMI Out from device in First link to HDMI In on Switch
    2. HDMI Out from switch to TV
    3. HDMI Out from switch to Projector
