Those who own a Sonos Arc and either an Xbox Series X or Apple TV 4K box will be all too aware that there has been a Dolby Atmos issue for years – they haven't always played nice together.
Sometimes, when playing non-decoded Dolby Atmos audio over the HDMI eARC connection the soundbar suddenly gives out a loud pop or bang, then silence. Not only does it make you wonder if the bar has been damaged, it's enough to scare the willies out of you (especially while watching the Yorkshire Ripper drama, The Long Shadow, as it did me).
