Hi,
I have recently moved to Sky Stream from Sky Q, for a number of reasons.
I'm reasonably impressed, so far, apart from a couple of issues; one minor, one less so.
The minor issue is CEC being problematic.
The major problem is that it refuses to play UHD on my projector. When I try to change, I just get a black screen, before it eventually switches back.
i know what the issue is, of course: I have a Sonos arc, hence have to interpose an HDFury Arcana. However, since this isn't an issue for either Sky Q, or AppleTV 4k, I don't see why it should be for the puck.
I am willing to either use a different eARC extractor, admitting defeat and cancelling UHD, or giving Sky Stream up as a bad job and cancelling my contract.
Any thoughts from the community?

Actually, much easier than imagined...
it's just that the box doesn't allow very long for the sync when switching from HD to UHD. I directly connected the box to the projector, switched to 2160p, then switched it off and replugged via the arcana et voila.
Thanks for the advice CoffeeDrinker; it spurred me on to find a solution!
