Soundtouch 300 - HDMI ARC Challenges

I am loyal to Bose and want more than anything to buy the Soundtouch 300 sound bar. However, all of the documented HDMI ARC issues (and Bose unwillingness to acknowledge or fix it) have me considering the Sonos Playbar.
I have an LG OLED tv (B6P) and want to know that the Soundtouch 300 will work as it is supposed to for me when hooked up through the HDMI ARC connection.
Has anyone with an LG OLED tv confirmed that the firmware update released on February 21st fixes the problem? I'm unwilling to shell out the $700 dollars for this product until I know it is going to function properly. I'm also not willing to compromise and settle for optical only connection. If I am going to be forced to go that route I mine as well just get the silly Sonos Playbar.
Thanks in advance for any help/advice to put my mind at ease as I prepare to dip into my son's college savings fund to buy this piece of equipment.
Cheers.
