Remote Controls not Working when Through Sky Q Optical

Hi there.
When I set up my Sonos Beam through Sky Q using the Optical connection, I am unable to use either my TV remote or Sky Q remote to change the volume. When it's through HDMI it is fine, however my TV will not push through Dolby Digital and I have to put my Sky Q on Normal audio.

Any help much appreciated!

Did you setup the Beam to use the remote? If not, see this link:

Thanks I will take a look now. When I set up through HDMI-ARC, the TV and Sky Q remote automatically worked.
