CEC Interference

I have the same issue with my sonos Beam not wanting to connect via ARC as even my new 2021 4k apple Tv is interfering with the connection! I don't know how to get around this! Would a CEC blocking hdmi socket work? The sonos will only work over airplay which is pointless as i have minimum control over all possible features! Any advice is welcome…

Sonos Beam connects to your TV’s HDMI-ARC port.

Apple TV →[HDMI]→ TV →[HDMI ARC]→ Sonos Beam


Set to Apple TV to use ‘TV speakers’, then the TV can passthrough the audio to the Sonos. Depending on your TV, this may be automatic or may need configuration on the TV.
