Just start playing the TV, then go in to the controller and start playing music on your Sonos system. The ‘auto-play’ feature that is normally on on a soundbar will detect any starts by the stream, but you should be fine with playing the music, once you’ve started it.

While watching the TV, you can play a radio through the Sonos app. Then, you can watch the TV and listen the audio you want to play. At least, that’s what I do with my Sony and Arc. I don’t know if it’s something to change in the TV or sound bar settings.

Thanks Airgetlam and Triticale. I found the TV Autoplay setting and made the adjustment. Now it works fine.
