I assume you own the Sonos Ray, because a SkyQ box most likely doesn’t have a HDMI-ARC port.  You need to connect the soundbar to the TV’s optical port, not the SkyQ.  Then the audio will go from whatever the source (SkyQ or FIre TV) to the TV, and out through the TV’s optical to the Ray.

Same advice.  Connect it to the TV’s optical port, not the SkyQ’s.
