Keep in mind that most tv only provide you with an optical audio output. This is a digital signal that has to be decoded by a Dolby Digital decoder found in a AVR receiver, some home theater in a box with an optical audio input or a sound bar.

All surround sound software are either encoded in Dolby or DTS and is found only on DVD, Blu Ray and some video games. Hope this will help you out.
