@Dale46  Don't sync boxes work best with devices connected to it, for  example Blur Ray players?  And then connect to a TV, if so as Glass has No HDMI outputs you could try the HDMI marked eARC as it should pass sound back out.  I'm not sure if it would work thoigh.

Like you I'm a customer here, Sky Employees are clearly identified as such.

It will not work with a Glass TV. 

The Govee sync boxes need to accept a video input signal and then output it to a TV.
Sky Glass can only output audio from the HDMI eARC socket. 
If you want to sync coloured LED lighting strips attached to the back of a Glass TV to whatever is on the screen then you need one of the Govee camera attachments. The camera points down at the screen to read the colours and then alters the colour of the LED strips accordingly. It's a bit of an ugly, cumbersome approach having a camera stuck to the top of your TV, pointing at the screen, but it does give a rough equivalent of the Philips Ambilight system.
