If the app says that the Sonos is receiving Dolby Digital, that means the show is being sent in Dolby Digital, but they’ve chosen not to use the surround channel. I’ve got that same issue with preseason football games, my local channel sends a 5.1 signal, but the actual show is only in stereo, so I get no surrounds, no center channel, and no LFE. 

The best thing to do is complain to Netflix, your TV and Sonos are working as designed.

I also had some issues like this with FM WhatsApp APK a long time ago. Then I updated this app and my problem is solved. You can also update your app and see. Maybe your problem is solved....
