The Sonos Beam has eArc and most new TVs only have one "eArc" connection.
If I now want to connect an AppleTV 4K box.... which device should be connected to eArc? The Sonos Beam or the Apple TV? For example, I want to play Dolby Atmos with the Apple Music app on the Apple TV.

Answer

I would use the eArc for your Apple Box and use an optical cable to connect from the TV to the Beam.
