How to go back and Add TV Sound to Playbase after already setting up

Hi, I have a Sonos One and Playbase. I added the Playbase before had the right digital optical cable connection for my 2010 TV. I went ahead and set up for wireless streaming of music to Playbase and the Sonos One. That works great. Now I have the tv connected how and where do I go back to go through the set up for adding TV sound to my Sonos system.

It should play automatically when the TV is on..

It doesn’t as I need to go through the set up steps again i think so the Sonos detects the tv. Maybe the tv menu for speakers needs to be set to external speaker?

All Sonos is looking for is a valid Optical signal

The "setup" is just to do with setting the remote control to turn the volume up and down on the Playbase with the TV remote.

You do need to set the Optical output on the TV and disable intenal speakers.

If you pull the Optical lead out of the Playbase with the TV on you should see it's lit up (red) inside, if not the optical out on the TV is not operating.
