How to link Sonos ARC + Apple TV 4K + 2 HomePods to have Dolby Atmos ?

Hello,

 

I recently bought a Sonos Arc to complete my installation.

So now, I have 1 Sonos ARC + 2 HomePods + Apple TV 4K, but It seems when I connect Sonos Arc + HomePod through AirPlay I don’t have Dolby Atmos on my Apple TV 4K.

Is it normal ? There is a solution to bypass this error ?

Thanks in advance for your help

You cannot set up surround sound using an Arc and two Homepods.  You must use all Sonos speakers to have surround with the Arc.

It does work with Airplay.  Airplay plays in stereo over Sonos just fine.  However, it doesn't say anything about mixing and matching Sonos and Homepods in a surround configuration, which has nothing to do with Airplay.
