I know you’ve said you tried different hdmi cables, but have you made sure they’re certified and ultra high speed. I was just using normal hdmi cables I got with my ps5 and Apple TV and was having issues with losing frames and the screen going grey sometimes. Then I switched to these and have had great picture quality, no frame loss, no grey screen.

I almost bought the same one that you posted in your link, but ended up not because of the reviews. If a chord truly supports 48 Gbps speeds, it will be labeled as "certified ultra high speed". Premium high speed is the next lower level, and then high speed the next lower level after that. Hopefully that helps.
I use these with my ATV 4K + 2019 LG OLED. Never had any issues. Good luck!

I have a gaming rig setup but not a kb/mouse player. I use Xbox elite 2 on PC.
PS5 HDMI is 2.1 but i bought this for PC and PS5. It is certified, well made and cheap. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07RZ8V78S/ref=cm_sw_r_apan_glt_fabc_W8W47M345Q4GRBK8GQ1A?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1)
It does come with a HDMI 2.1 cord, but as the others have stated, it’s always good to have a backup. The one supplied in the Xbox also isn’t certified by the HDMi licensing board, and while I can assure you, you won’t have any issues, it’s not a bad idea to get a fully licensed HDMI 2.1 cable rated for 48gbps.
I recommend getting the Zeskit cables, you can find them on Amazon. The shorter you can get the cable as well, the better, as you’ll tend to run into less issues.
I had the same issue with my A8H and Nvidia Shield. The key is your HDMI cable. I had to buy a new 2.1 cable. I no longer have any black screen flashes or flickering. I recommend these

When I got my 4K ATV and connected it to my ACR-X6400H I initially used the HDMI cable that I had on hand. That caused a few HDR issues. So, I broke the piggy bank and bought new HDMI cables rated for 8K and that solved everything.

Two things 1. Its certified (holographic sticker with QR code) there's alot of 2.1 cables out there people are buying and suddenly having problems and everyone is pointed to the zeskit cable. 2. I believe the TV only takes upto 40gb/s not 48gb/s for some reason. I know that has nothing to do with the cable but just felt like pointing out :)
Here's the 1meter version of the cable and you can also see the sticker I was on about when you scroll down :)

I did! I did a lot of things, but what I think helped most was that I ended up upgrading the 18gbps cables to 48gbps, which I think made a huge difference. I also actually upgraded my receiver to one with a second HDMI out, which enabled me to run my video signal through both the TV and Zone 2. I'm running the Sync box from Zone 2 now, so that even if the Sync Box signal drops, it won't interfere with the content of the movie. However, since I did those two things the signal hasn't dropped (knock on wood). I also removed a Wemo smart plug from the network at the suggestion of others, but I'm not sure if that made a difference or not.
Btw, these are the cables I got. That Philips pretends the crappy cord they include is supposed to be good enough is criminal, given what they charge for the box. Best of luck with your setup!
The newer firmware fixes the black flashing when Gsync is enabled so it is probably your cable. I am using this cable with my CX and 3080 and it works great on the fixed firmware.

Bummer. I just tested last night. I did get Atmos on the native Netflix app but nowhere else yet. I also couldn’t get it on AppleTV.
I did some research and discovered that the HDMI cable can be a problem for Apple TV. I just ordered this one and hope it does the trick. Amazon
After all the confusion, I wonder if Sonos regrets not just adding a second HDMI port. It would have made everything so easy!

No idea why the labeling on UK amazon is so shit, but this appears to be from Zeskit.
Please correct me if I'm wrong.
Correct, port 4 is 2.1. Xbox One X is capable of 2.1, and I'd like to have a correct cable that is of decent quality. This one for $17 seems to be good, yeah?

Yes it does. Could very well be your cable. This is my favorite.
Just buy an ultra high speed cable. I recommend this one from Zeskit. It’s certified and was first to be certified as ultra high speed.
Zeskit Maya on Amazon, the Zeskit Cinema Plus cables will work fine too, the Cube is only HDMI 2.0 as far as I know.
Buy these. Inexpensive, great quality, and verifiably certified.
I would try this one. First certified ultra high speed cable.
Just to throw this in , the device is saying your tv supports Dolby Atmos which you can only utilize using ARC so you'd have to have your cube plugged into a non ARC input then a high quality Ultra Highspeed HDMI 2.1 cable from your ARC HDMI input to your soundbar or receiver. I swear by these Zeskit cables i replaced most hdmis in my house with them as they are cheap enough to get multiple but also future proof as they are 48gbps 8K60 and looks better than the $50 Belkin HDMI cable these jerks at best buy conned my lady into purchasing with my PS5 and the difference is noticeable so if your HDMI is the issue then one of these will fix your issue (I'd get one to go to your tv from the cube too) they make shorter cables that are cheaper but they are mostly $15 - $20 unless you need a 10ft cable which would be like $23

If it's something your using app wise then then following info might help!
I originally only used third party apps and thought mx player with custom codecs was the best way to play content or even VLC but after awhile realized they were always playing my audio in stereo. The only way to get the Atmos sound in third party apps for me has been to use the EXO player mods found in apps like TiviMate, Syncler or Cinema or using a fork of K**i. Ive tried to report this to the developers of VLC and MX Player but no luck , i get the same results on my 2019 Nvidia Shield Pro , Tivostream 4K and any Fire TV device including the new 4K Max but the default Players in TiviMate and Syncler have played everything with no hiccups.
All apps such as Netflix , HBOMAX etc automatically play in the highest quality format their app reports granted the content has that audio available. If the app is saying it plays in Atmos and your using an official app or one of the above mentioned options for third party apps but you still aren't playing the content I'd assume it's something somewhere in the settings of your tv or soundbar/receiver so just search through those but most of the time it's that people are trying to use optical cables (Red Light) which will down sample the audio to DD5.1 which I also found out the hard way after hours of frustration before I just googled it and found out optical didnt support Atmos sound so I got those zeskit cables i mentioned above and it's been history and annoyed neighbors ever since!
(I'm no asshole tho! I use night mode on my receiver after 9pm which kills the bass that would upset any neighbors)
Hope some of this info helped!

I had the same exact issue and mine is now working. I would specifically get these cables.
The next thing to do temporarily until you get the cables. Is follow the instructions in this video. Specifically what he has to say about resolution and running at 420. You will know what I mean when you see it.

My wife runs a LG CX and I run a LG C9. We had to upgrade our HDMI cables. Don't' let the review sites fool you. bandwidth matters.
They have 3' and 6.5' regular ones and even 10' & 16' inwall rated versions.

What cable are you using specifically? Many cables are reported to not work, including the $200 monoprice one I bought.

nvidia control panel -> display resolution -> pc section -> 4k/120hz default color settings should be available
make sure instant game response is checked.
I got the zeskit from Amazon. I looked in to it and it is 2.1 certified. High quality for a good price. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07RZ8V78S?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share
