“Any advantage to using one HDMI cord from Blu-ray player to new Samsung QLED TV, and a second HDMI cord from Blu-ray player to a soundbar? Of course the high-end soundbar is connected to the Samsung TV using a third HDMI cord.”

Not needed, Bluray out HDMI Port 1 out to Soundbar and then soundbar to TV, the only way to wire it. The 2nd HDMI port on the Bluray player is a sound out to go to a stereo receiver. If you connect HDMI port 2 to the soundbar and HDMI port 1 to the TV, you will have problems, just wire the way I initially said (HDMI port 1 out to soundbar, and then soundbar out to TV HDMI input 2) the 2nd HDMI port on the Bluray (sound out) is only to be connected to a receiver. And yes, your soundbar will pass Dolby Vision and HDR. And yes, your soundbar will play Dolby ATMOS in this configuration.
