Is there a mode button on the sound bar. Question

You will need to have 2 HDMI Leads for it to work
HDMI from your sky through the sound bar to the tv

press the mode and switch it to AUX it should work through all chanels then.

I had to do the same with mine Thumbs Up 2020 Porsche Panamera Turbo Hybrid (V FAST)
