NO Atmos with apple music on q990f + qn90d

Gil00 — Mon, 29 Sep 2025 00:09:34 GMT

Hello!

Why doesn't the q990f soundbar play Apple Music Atmos tracks via AirPlay in Atmos quality, only in stereo PCM? I've tried both through the Apple Music app on an iPhone 13 and on the qn90d TV, but nothing works.

I have the TV and soundbar connected via eARC.

How can I fix this? Has anyone been successful?

I had the same problem with my q930 b soundbar, no atmos output even when played through airplay.
Happened to be apple is the villain, they don't allow atmos quality to be streamed on other speakers, even Sonos also can't play it.
So basically apple music atmos cannot be played through airplay to atmos soundbar
