tvOS 27 surround sound issue

Why after updating to tvOS 27 am I not getting any sound from my surround speakers (5.1 setup)? It was working perfectly in tvOS 26.

I’m also having the same problem optical and ARc both not working after the update some apps work better than others I can only assume this has to do with the Dolby Digital standard because some applications it works fine but others don’t.

Interestingly, it just went away after a while, even before I updated to 27.2. Are you still having problems?
