New LG OLED CX 55”, Sonos Arc and Apple TV 4K Audio skipping after listening to Dolby Atmos

Hello, I have just bought an LG OLED55CX5LB tv, a Sonos Arc and Apple TV 4K. I have set everything up and have watched a number of movies in Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos, which I’m very pleased with. However, when I then try and watch any content that isn’t Dolby Atmos, the audio cuts in and out continuously. My LG tv apps work fine, but anything within the Apple TV do not. The only one that seems to be okay is if I go to Prime within Apple TV, then watch a normal tv show, it seems to fix the issue and anything that’s not Dolby Atmos works without the skipping. As soon as I watch something in Dolby Atmos, the problem occurs again. So, I’m not sure if there’s an issue within the LG TV sending the sound/code to the sound bar or within Apple TV. Thank you in advance for any help with this issue.
