Connect sky soundbox to receive audio from TV via HDMI?

Can I connect my (Devialet designed) sky soundbox to receive audio directly from my LG OLED TV via HDMI (ARC)?

There is no HDMI Arc support on the Sky Soundbox @Tristy

That's a shame as all of the online reviews gloss over and just mention hdmi input, I wonder what format it's setup to accept and whether I can get a cable to convert as wish to setup directly with the TV being source.

Hi @Tristy 

Assuming your TV has an optical out you could optical connect to your Soundbar.

If your TV doesn't have an optical out I assume youcould use something like the following on the TV ARC HDMI
