Need new TV - using DAC with digital-only audio output TVs?

Hello

After 8 years or so, my LG B6 55" OLED has developed an annoying green hue (all viewing angles) which affects non-green colours (skin, hair, yellows etc).

Perusing the internet suggests this is becoming a known issue with (some) OLED panels and is effectively incurable (I've followed suggested solutions - all have failed)

So it's either a new panel or new TV - the latter probably make more sense (and I'm looking at an LG C5 2025)

Problem is my 2:1 audio system (Logitech) is analogue, and all modern TVs seem to be digital audio out only (not even 3.5mm headphone socket) 🙁

If I buy a C5 plus DAC to continue using the Logitech 2:1 system (which I love), will this result in significant latency / lip sync issues? If so, are there workarounds?

Thanks
 
Thanks - sorry I'm new to this

So you can tweak this to compensate? Does this need doing for various sources or is it generally set & forget?

Will it be likely necessary in this scenario?
