Massive Atmos Audio Delay On Xbox One X

Deus Xpose · Jul 3, 2020

My setup is a Samsung Q95T with a Sonos ARC soundbar.

My Xbox One X is plugged straight into my TV's Game HDMI port.

The Sonos Soundbar is plugged into my TV's eARC port.

On my Xbox sound settings I have under speaker audio are:

HDMI Audio->Bitstream out

Bitstream Format->Dolby Atmos for home theatre (hdmi only)

The delay is unusable and I'm unable to find a fix, just more people that seem to be having the same problem. I've got a brand new 2020 TV, a brand new soundbar and the most up to date xbox, it's incredibly frustrating that I'm not able to enjoy the tech
that I have!!

Hi,

Sorry about that issue, you have to contact Dolby itself about your trouble, explain everything and explain also how you set the dolby atmos app on your xbox one x > https://www.dolby.com/about/support/

I am having the same problem. I just bought the Samsung Q70T TV and Samsung soundbar Q70, i thought it might be my soundbar that was the problem but it sounds like its either the Dolby access software or hate to say our Samsung TV???

I have a new Xbox One S.

As I continue to troubleshoot this problem I will check back on this post.

I have the same problem with My xbox one x and 950 soundbar. I get audio delay once I enable Dolby atmos via the audio settings on my hdmi, but the soundbar works great with all other devices, cable TV, apple TV 4k. I've literally tried everything and
I'm thinking is has something to do with the Dolby atmos application. I've used optical and other sources and they sound good, obviously not Dolby atmos but they work. I don't think it's my TV or soundbar. I've also replaced the xbox one x to a new xbox one
x and same issue. It has to be a bug in the atmos connection from the speakers to the xbox. It's super frustrating. Not sure what else to do until I new update comes out.

Interesting post, thank you for trying and posting your findings.

I've had the audio delay issue for years and tried everything. I had the nu8000 Samsung TV before and recently got the qn90b and the issue is still present.

My set up is, Xbox series x > qn90b > onkyo 676.

If I do 5.1, stereo uncompressed, mono, there's no delay. There is only an audio delay with dolby atmos for home theatre option.

Your suggestion does not work on my end however, because the only way I can set the qn90b to pass-through is if I unselect the dolby atmos option under it, which allows me to change audio output format from auto or pcm, to pass-through but when I do that, the Xbox series x no longer detects my set up as dolby 5.1/7.1/atmls capable and says not supported so I can't even force the Xbox to output atmos.

As for the qn90b audio delay option, it's already at 0, and the delay is very noticeable in shooter games, but especially while watching movie.
