External Display daisy chain attempt from Thunderbolt Display

Have a MacBook Air (13-inch, Early 2015) and using with a 27in Thunderbolt Display. Wanting to daisy chain another display off the Thunderbolt Display. Have a Thunderbolt/HDMI adaptor connecting to a Samsung Monitor - the Mac will NOT recognize it. Any ideas on what I'm doing wrong? Thanks

2nd Display Support:Dual/Mirroring* 2nd Max. Resolution:3840x2160 (4K)*

Details:* Although Apple originally only reported that this model could support a single external display up to 2560x1600, third-parties discovered that it actually could support a 3840x2160 (4K) display, and Apple subsequently revised their official documentation to confirm this, as well.
