I have a new TV that does not have the red/white audio out connectors.

It does have 4 HDMI (1 is ARC) and optical output.
I want to connect STB, Apple TV (4K), Blu-ray player and computer so that’s all the HDMI inputs used.

I have a normal amp that just has normal red/white L/R connectors.

Only need stereo output (not interested in surround sound as TV in other room has this).

I have a 4K repeater that also has L/R output.
Do I, for example simply connect the Apple TV to the HDMI repeater and then to the TV (ARC input) and then the L/R in the repeater to the stereo?

Does that mean the ARC is a two way thing, even if the Apple TV is not being played? i.e. I want output to amp regardless of input device.?

As it happens I have one of these somewhere but wondered if the 4K repeater through ARC would do the same job?
