Listening through an Apple TV

Hello, for my new house I was thinking about a PC monitor connected to an Apple TV and using a pair of Era 300 as speakers. I will mainly listen to music through Apple Music, and watch some videos.

I read that the Era 300 will only play stereo and not ATMOS while watching videos, but I can accept that. Most of the time I would listen to music, so I prefer a pair of speakers rather than a soundbar.

The most annoying thing I read is that Apple TV would reset the audio output every time it goes to sleep, so I’d have to change it to Sonos all the times. Is that correct? If so, any workaround?

Any other drawbacks? Would you suggest a setup like that?

Thanks in advance for your suggestions.

Works fine as long as the ATV isn’t powered off. As it will reset to default speakers afterwards. However ios26 has an option to choose airplay speakers by default. I have the developer version installed and it works fine with ERA100 pair. Auto reconnects to them after power cycle.
