Panasonic SA-DP1: Optical audio with sound bar

Panasonic (Audio/Video Receivers) SA-DP1: Optical audio with sound bar
I have an insignia sound bar. (I selected Panasonic because it didn’t have insignia as an option) Currently, I have the optical cable connected to the tv, and the sound from my Xbox is connected through hdmi to the tv, which then comes out through the sound
bar. Would it differ in sound quality if I connected the optical cable directly to the Xbox or keep it connected to the tv?

I'm having trouble connecting my xbox one to my surround sound. NEED HELP PLEASE

How do I get sound from my xbox one to my Panasonic SA-XR10 Receiver? I have plugged an optical cable from my xbox one to the receiver but this doesn't seem to work as the sound doesn't come through. Anyone have any ideas please?

 

HDMI Audio & Optical Audio

I have the XBOX One connected directly to my TV using the HDMI cable.

Audio and video is working perfectly.

I also have a Polk Sound Bar that does not have HDMI. It does have optical, so I have the XBOX One connected directly to my Sound Bar using the optical cable.

I am not getting any sound from the Sound Bar.

Both the HDMI Audio and Optical Audio is set to "Stereo Uncompressed" in my Settings Menu.

What am I doing wrong?

I have been reading some articles online stating that the optical output only delivers stereo at launch, and that Dolby Digital will be coming post-launch with an update.

Could this be the reason why my Sound Bar is not working - because it needs Dolby Digital?

Thanks for your time. Hopefully someone can help me.
