Suround sound xbox one and soundtouch 300

[OliverG]

Hey, I saw similar posts, but did not find exactly my problem mentioned. 

So far I connected my xbox one with my TV (Samsung) via HDMI and the ST300 via HMDI ARC to my TV. Problem I found is xbox one does not "see" the ST300 and always flips back the sound setting to "stereo uncompressed".

Then I started some testing 

a) connect the xbox directly to the st300 via HDMI IN -> setting in the xbox still always flips back from bit stream to "stereo uncompressed".

b) connect the xbox via the optical cable to st300 -> wow. Great sound, but now I would need to be able to switch between optical and HDMI input in the st300. Based on what I foundin other threads this is not possible by bose design. 

Have others seen this problem and was anybody able to fix this?

good news. After restarting all devices the solution a) keeps working now and xbox keeps the bistream setting for HMDI as expected w/o the flip back to stereo.
