So the sonos sounds really good but I'm having one problem. I can't get Atmos to come through from the Sony A80J.

I seem to be only getting DD+ 5.1 which sounds great but obviously I really want to be getting Atmos.

I'm streaming direct from Disney + via the in built app. I've got eARC switched to Auto along with pass through.

I definitely got atmos with my previous LG SP9Ya with the same tv so I'm not sure what the issue is?

I've unplugged the tv for a few minutes and plugged it back in to force a eARC handshake but still nothing...

Checked for sonos updates and that's all good.

I'm using the provided Sonos HDMI cable.

Running out of ideas.

There have been some recent issues with Disney+ on some devices, perhaps it’s related to the issue you’re seeing:

It seems Disney + may be the culprit. There are articles out there that say a recent update has caused issues with Atmos on Android TVs.

Confirmed the issue is definitely the Disney + app. 

 

I got a copy of the latest Batman and got Atmos straight away. 

 

That's a relief.
