No, this device doesn't support ARC.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I found a product that seem to be the solution to my problem: https://thenaudio.com/shop/ I bought the ZONE-2 product and have it between my TV's eARC port and my soundbar's eARC port, and the audio (including Dolby Atmos) from Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, Spotify, and other apps on the TV is playing out the soundbar just fine. I'm waiting for a long enough HDMI cable to arrive, so I can connect my AV receiver to the ZONE-2 as well, which would allow audio from the TV to play out of my ceiling speakers simultaneously with my soundbar. I'll provide an update shortly.

And neither audio sound stages seems to have any delay -- that is, no echo effects! I'll need to do more extensive testing with various video streams, but so far, I'm very impressed!
