How to connect Logitech 5.1 speakers to Samsung UHD TV (UN70KU630DFXZA)

I have gone to Fry's 2x and both times the employees suggested solutions that did not work. The last time, we got an auxiliary cord which did nothing and transmitted no sound.

Here are pictures of audio in/outs of both devices: https://flic.kr/s/aHsm3Jj9nJ

An option: https://www.amazon.com/Digital-Analog-Converter-Optical-Toslink/dp/B005K2TXMO
or similar digital to analog converter.

Thanks. What additional cables do I need to get to connect this to the speakers and TV?

No problem. A digital audio cable is included, so you'd need only a 3.5mm one, like https://www.amazon.com/Anker-Premium-Auxiliary-Headphones-iPhones/dp/B00R124LAK/ref=sr_1_2?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1499264273&sr=1-2&keywords=3.5+mm+cable

Thanks again. Will this also work? https://www.amazon.com/Neoteck-Converter-Digital-Coaxial-Toslink/dp/B01N07LYON/

Mo problem. Yes, it should work.

Mo problem. Yes, it should work.

Thanks. Since the aux cord can only pick one output of the 4, I end up with either 2 front speakers working, 2 rear speakers working, or just 1 speaker working, but none at the same. time. How can I get all 5 speakers to work?

You can use a splitter like https://www.amazon.com/YCS-Basics-Splitter-combining-sources/dp/B00EA8QUTS/ref=pd_sim_267_4?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=B00EA8QUTS&pd_rd_r=Y2QG9RHTHMSBAVTZNMYS&pd_rd_w=xXyn9&pd_rd_wg=7NM2u&psc=1&refRID=Y2QG9RHTHMSBAVTZNMYS
for connecting the rear speakers too.
I wouldn't connect the sub though.

What about this? https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01N8YEXLT/

Not sure about that one. Maybe if returning the previous converter and testing the decoder, but again, not sure if it will provide a 5.1 signal.
