Apple TV 4k Center channel Atmos glitch with Apple+ shows

So when watching Apple TV+ shows on my Apple TV 4k, the center channel with dialogue will jump to the left or right speaker for a second or two at a time. So I have seen people saying they have this issue with Netflix, but I seem to only have it in Apple TV+ shows. It is really annoying. It is on Atmos mixes.

Apple TV+ streaming glitch I am experiencing an odd issue with some AppleTV+ shows, when I try to watch from Up Next nothing appears to happen, then just the sound from the show starts with the Home Screen still there, no video happening at all. I can fix it by watching a different Apple series, then can go back to the first show and it works like it should. Kind of frustrating, happening every day now. Apple TV 1625, TVOS 16.0

Apple TV programmes not playing through soundbar Slightly bizarre fault. Our Apple TV works fine with our sound bar when using any app except Apple TV itself. Ie: if we try to play a show from the Apple TV app there is no sound. it is not the connection to the sound bar as BBC iPlayer or Amazon prime work fine through the Apple TV box. sound bar is connected via optical cable from tv.

Atmos works perfectly on blu-rays to my Sony Receiver, and turning off Atmos stops the issue on Apple TV+ shows. I have a 1 tb fiber internet connection and the Apple TV is hooked up via cat 6 ethernet, so i don’t think it is a connection issue.
