Cannot complete home sharing set up on Apple TV

I have a Apple TV 4K on a Samsung TV that I am trying to finish setting up home sharing on. Home sharing is on and all devices have been updated. I can get my phone to connect via bluetooth as it instructs me to but then it takes me to the Samsung screen. When I exit this screen my phone disconnects. I can't find any other way to get connected. Thanks for any help out there!
