Surround sound for Playstation 5 using Sonos Beam (2) and 2 Era 100

Hello everyone, excuse me in advance for any mistakes I am French !
I just purchased two Era 100 in addition to my Beam Gen 2 and I have some surround issues with my PS5..

 

Indeed, surround sound only works in linear PCM on Youtube or any other streaming application but in gaming the surround’s very limited.For example, in Dead By Daylight, I only hear a few very light sounds from the back and no interesting and important sounds (player movements behind my back for example).Do you have some tips to give me to benefit from real surround sound in game (with good spatialization) ?Thank you to those who take the time to respond to me

And so are we agree that I no longer touch anything, whether for films or games (I don't watch YouTube on the PS5 but on the Apple TV).

Yes, I would keep the settings the same on the PS5 for both films and games.

 

On the Apple TV, use these Audio Format settings:

Change Format: ON

New Format: Dolby Digital 5.1

Ok, thanks for everything !
