My Sony Blu-ray player has a dedicated HDMI output for audio only. Will the Ultra eARC work with that?

Ultra supports ARC, not eARC, and its's unlikely the Blu-ray player provides that. Also, I think it's been mentioned that the actual pins in the HDMI connection for ARC are different from those used for non-ARC audio.

See the Thread 'Connect Amp to Panasonic UB820 via HDMI Audio Out, possible?' https://forum.wiimhome.com/threads/connect-amp-to-panasonic-ub820-via-hdmi-audio-out-possible.6310/ from yesterday.
HDMI audio input to WiiM without ARC is possible with a HDMI audio extractor. HDMI 2.0 supports up to 24-bit, 192 kHz lossless digital streams. HDMI audio extractors ($22-$35) offer bit-perfect TOSLINK input to WiiM.
A thread in Audio Science Review (https://www.audiosciencereview.com/...amazon-basics-4k-hdmi-extractor-review.39467/ ) has details - including data showing HDMI audio extractors’ high performance levels.
