Help! Apple TV go through irdac?


Hi all,
I am trying to get my older Apple TV to receive the signal from my phone or computer and pass it through my Arcam irdac first iteration through the optical inputs. I’m then going out from the irdac to my line magnetic 211ia’s rca. My phone acknowledges that it’s sending a signal to the Apple TV but no sound. There is no tv involved here. Thoughts?

or, if there is no way to use the Apple TV to stream my digital library, is there’s some sort of device that could connect to my dac that would receive the signal and pass it through my system?

The Apple TV should stream your digital files. I stream my lossless ripped Cds from a Mac Mini to two 3rd generation Apple TVs and use the optical outputs into stand alone DACs. It works perfectly.

Does the LED light turn on when you access your Apple TV?
  
Your DAC has 2 optical inputs. Are you sure you have selected the correct input?
