For audio passthrough via the TV set, the TV will need an eARC port for Apple TV’s audio output in ‘Auto’ format (PCM Multichannel), and/or Dolby Atmos in Dolby MAT format.


Alternatively, you can opt for the HDfury Arcana adapter/​processor in your setup, to route the Atmos signal separate from the TV. It was designed specifically for users in this situation.
