PLEASE HELP! Apple TV 4K Sony X900H Vizio SB46514 - Atmos missing.

PLEASE HELP! Apple TV 4K + Sony X900H + Vizio SB46514 - Atmos or Center channel missing.

Anyone have a setup like this and able to get Atmos and center channel working?

Apple TV 4K into Sony HDMI 4

Vizio SB into Sony HDMI 3 (ARC)

I switch sound on Sony settings to TV Speakers, Apple TV settings show Atmos available... I switch sound to external speakers which is how is has always worked before adding the Apple TV, settings on the screen change so no Atmos is available.

Worse than that, there is a recurring bug where the center channel plays no audio. (Unless I change the setting on the Apple 4K back to 5.1 sound)
