getting frustrated

Mar 4, 2015 4:43AM PST

Good evening,

Ive recently got myself the following kit

Samsung 55" curved TV 7100
Samsung HW750 soundbar
samsung M5 speakers x 2

The issue i have is i cant seem to get the speakers to work as surround sound ?
I have connected the TV to my Sky box via HDMI and the soundbar via TV connect.
If i play music on spotify all speakers work fine as its over a wifi network,but i just cant seem to sort the TV out.

I was wondering if i connect an optical lead from sky to soundbar will this fix the problem ?

Any othe suggestions welcome

Thanks in advance

I see 4.1 soundbar and 2.1 soundbar but did not see anything about surround speaker connection. What did the manual tell you.
