Just bought a 43 inch 4k TV from Amazon - Hisense H43A6200UK. This one -

I'm trying to figure out if it has a normal 3.5mm audio out connection as my and the wife like to lay in bed at night and use our headphones to listen to the TV. We have a long extension 3.5mm that runs from the current old Samsung TV and we have a two-way splitter that we plug our small headphones into.

According to one question that's been answered on Amazon someone has said it does have a 3.55m audio out connection, however according to the specs it only has optical.

I have two questions -

1. Does this TV have a 3.5mm audio out as well as optical connection?

2. When it lands tomorrow and only has an optical audio out connection, will I need to buy something like this to convert it? -

Thanks everyone :)
