How do I get 5.1 sound from a TV that puts out 2.0 PCM on optical on a Play bar
We are using Samsung 4K TV and a sonos playbar. The optical output from the TV is PCM 2.0. Is there a work around for this?

An hdmi switcher with optical out to handle all your devices or hook fiber optic cable direct to source component.
Hi, all -
Just purchased a Playbar and stupidly assumed that my modern TV had an optical out. Would the following be an adequate workaround with 5.1?

If it matters, TV is a Vizeo VIZP702VI-B3
Also have an Onkyo Receiver with an unused Optial out (TX-NR737)
Appreciate it!
