Hi,


I'm hoping someone will be able to help! We currently have a Sonos play bar and 2 Play 1's as surrounds, running from my Sony W7 tv.


The TV and the soundbar are connected via optical, and whilst watching the TV, the tv is only passing through a stereo signal via the optical lead and not a dolby signal I have been told? So the Play 1's don't actually do anything whilst watching TV.


They are fine whilst playing music all of it works. I spoke to Sonos last night and they said to plug the Sky box directly into the Sonos via the optical lead which does work, however my Xbox one now won't work via it, and I have to turn the sky box off as well as the TV each time.


I assume I need to turn to change the optical out setting somewhere? I had a look but with no joy.


Thanks,


Dan
