My optical cable is from the TV to the surround, so if I'm watching movies on the V6 box or watching Netflix through PS4 or the TV app, the sound is always brilliant.
Make sure to choose a soundbar that supports ARC. Your TV should have one HDMI port with ARC and if you connect the soundbar to the TV via the ARC ports then all the sound from all the TV's inputs (V6, PS4, Blu-Ray, whatever) will come from the soundbar. This also lets you use the TV's remote to control the volume from the soundbar, or the V6 remote if you program it to operate your TV. No need for optical cables.

Instructions on how to program the remote are here.
