I’m totally confused! I have an Apple 4K, Roku Ultra, Fire Stick 4K, and Android TV in a Sony XBR-55X900E. So I bring up Jack Ryan on Amazon Prime using the Android TV and there is no Dolby Atmos logo showing in the movie description. Now, I go to Apple TV bring up the same movie and it shows the Dolby Atmos logo. Now, how do I know if it’s playing in Dolby Atmos. I check the S2 app on my iPhone and there is nothing showing me any audio output sound except I have enhanced speech turned on. And the night sound logo.

To know exactly what audio the Arc is receiving, go to System > About My System, and scroll down to the Sonos Arc information and see what it says after “Audio In:”

Also, if you are receiving Dolby Atmos audio, you will see the Dolby Atmos logo below the word “TV” and above the Night Sound icon.

Check what it says after “Audio In:” while you are watching the content you want to check.

Thanks works perfect. Of all my streaming devices Android TV is the only one that’ll play Dolby Atmos.
