Dolby Atmos turns off when you connect your LG CK43 because it is a stereo-only device that does not support Dolby Atmos decoding. By default, Apple Music only plays Dolby Atmos automatically when it detects a "capable" output like AirPods or certified Atmos speakers. 


I'm not entirely sure, but I think you can force the use of Dolby Atmos with your LG CK43 from the iPhone settings, in the Music app and in the audio section so that Dolby Atmos is always active instead of automatic.
