From this website: https://www.pocket-lint.com/tv/news/sky/145746-how-netflix-works-on-sky-q-your-questions-answered

If you have a Sky Q Entertainment subscription and the 1TB box you will get Netflix Standard membership (two streams in HD). If you have a Sky Q Experience (formerly known as Q Multiscreen) subscription with the 2TB box, you get Netflix Premium membership (four streams in up to Ultra HD).

Do you see the Dolby Atmos logo on the description of any of the shows or movies on Netflix? Did you set your TV audio settings to what I posted above?

The Sonos app showing “Dolby Digital Plus 5.1” is progress. Now try testing the show Ratched on Netflix and see if it shows “Dolby Atmos (DD+)” in the Sonos app.

Glad you got it working. If you want to hear Dolby Atmos audio in all its glory, turn off Night Sound (moon icon) and Speech Enhancement in the Sonos app. Enjoy!
