this is why when playing Atmos content from native apps in the TV set, the Sonos App will show “Dolby Atmos”
any TV set with ARC, using its own native streaming apps, will properly pass on internal ADD+ via its ARC port to the Sonos this is why you see on the Sonos App, that the soundbar is playing DD 5.1 when playing Atmos content from the ATV because the ATV will not output Atmos DD plus (ADD+), if you have an ARC (not eARC) TV set, the ATV drops the best output option down to PCM stereo. yes you read that correctly - the ATV which internally apparently uses ADD+, only supports ADDTHD output, it is not capable of outputting ADD+ ! (See Apple Support link at the bottom of my post) ironically the ATV, despite what it handles internally, will output only DD Atmos True HD (ADDTHD) which requires at least a TV with an eARC HDMI, to pass TRUE HD content to the Sonos If you have an ARC TV set, the fault is a truly bizzare twist in ATV Atmos output restrictions
