Got it to work not sure how it’s working (see photos) connected HDMI e ARC from tv into HDMI eARC OUTPUT on converter and connected the optical cable and I now have sound. Set sound output on Tv to PCM Stero .I think the Sky Glass most need a signal to allow sound output.

I’ve found a problem with the converter when the optical is connected there’s no red light coming from the end of the cable and the light on the converter to switch between ARC and eARC switches off . Tried converter on blu ray and no sound a friend had a cheap converter and that worked on the blu ray. Looks like there’s a problem with it. I’ve returned that one and have ordered the one below. I’ll keep you informed thanks for your interest

OK.  Yes please post back.  If that one doesn’t work then I think there is a reasonable chance that the one I linked earlier would (if it is available).
