New Samsung QLED 8k Lip Sync Issue with Sonos Playbar

Just bought a new Samsung QLED 8k tv and using a Sonos playbar with optical cable.

 

The lip sync is horrible and i have searched endlesly and called Sonos and Samsung for a fix but cannot find one.

 

I have tried all different settings and reduced lip sync delay to zero in Sonos and in the Samsung TV and there is still a delay.

 

Any other ideas out there to get this fixed?

 

You would think in todays technology age this would be a non-issue.

 

Going to return the TV if i cannot find a fix.

Everyone, first off if you are using the optical audio cable to sonos, you will NOT get the full audio experience, PLAIN AND SIMPLE. Atmos will only work via HDMI!

 

So now those whom are using the HDMI correctly and have this issue, there is ONLY ONE OPTION. (Please note I do not have the 8K Television, but believe it has eArc in which that needs to be utilized if it does have such).  The solution is the HD Fury 4K ARCANA only. Full Atmos and not a single sync issue since. 

The OP has a Playbar..
