An airplay compatible device can send out airplay audio, receive airplay audio, or possibly both. To my knowledge, only Apple devices can send out airplay audio, so I would check to make sure your TV can send out audio...which I doubt. Most likely, it can only receive, same as the ikea speakers.
If I am not mistaken, the smart TV in question is an AirPlay 2 receiving device, and does not generate an AirPlay 2 signal that you could send to the speakers.
To my (limited) knowledge, the only devices that can send an AirPlay 2 signal are Apple products.
So, you might be able to have an Apple TV send the audio through AirPlay 2 to the speakers, but then you’d have to use the HDMI cable to connect to the TV, because AirPlay 2 does not support sending video to one device and audio to others.
And I’ve never tried this, but there may be a slight delay due to processing between the audio and video….or not.
Your best bet, in the Sonos world, is to get either a Beam, or an Arc to connect to your TV. Both of those soundbars are designed for TV use.
Thanks for help!
Guys, how about the new Sonos Roam? Would that be a solution?
Hi
Unfortunately if your TV is not capable of transmitting an AirPlay 2 or Bluetooth signal to the Move, then it won’t be able to transmit to the Roam.
As suggested by
I was thinking about the Bluetooth option since the TV is capable to transmit Bluetooth signal.
Got it
It may be worth doing a search for your specific model of TV and “bluetooth", as other members of the community may have had success with using a Move in the same way :)
