Sonos Arc and Sony Blu Ray player

Good afternoon all 

New to Sonos, I’ve got an Arc and I’ve got it working with Sky Q and arc connects to HDMI 3 eArc input .. Sky is on HDMI 2 and Blu Ray HDMI 4 … sounds ok on Sky but no sound at all on Blu Ray. 
 

I’ve ensured that Blu Ray is on same network as Arc .. looked at settings on Blu Ray (Sony BDP-S790)  .. can’t find anything more I can do .. any help appreciate here please

@Neil25 The only other thing you can try is disconnecting the Blu-ray player from the TV and unplugging the TV and Blu-ray player from power for a couple of minutes. Then connect the player back to TV and plug everything back in. Set the Audio (HDMI) setting on the Blu-ray player to PCM and test again. If this doesn’t work, you might have a defective Blu-ray player.

Be sure the HDMI cable is connected to the HDMI OUT Video 1 port on the Blu-ray player, NOT the HDMI OUT Audio 2 port. If this doesn’t work, try connecting the Blu-ray player to a different HDMI port on the TV.

Which HDMI port are you using on the Blu-ray player?

If you set the Audio (HDMI) setting on the Blu-ray player to PCM, does it make any difference?

My apologies … yes there is 2 hdmi outs but for some reason they’d covered the 2nd one with a sticker so i didn’t see it ! Sony did it from manufacture. 
 

I’ve now put it in hdmi 1 and 2 and still sadly no sound .. losing the will now !
