software update for ATV 4k (2021) to solve problem with ARC only TVs

Dear Support, I would like to suggest a software update for ATV 4k (2021) in order to play Dolby Atmos on suitable sound bars passing through TVs that only have ARC HDMI connection. Currently ATV only supports TVs with eARC.

Does the ATV 4K support TrueHD Atmos? I’m have a Sonos ARC sound bar, but it doesn’t seem like I can get TrueHD Atmos from an Apple TV 4K 2021. It works on my Nvidia Shield Pro, so I think it’s the ATV 4K that’s the issue. I am using Infuse Pro. Thank you.
