I do - my blu-ray is currently plugged in to my tv's ARC channel. My understanding is that if I got the samsung and plugged the soundbar into my TV's ARC hdmi slot, plug in two other peripherals (i.e. bluray and cable box) in the non-arc HDMI's, and plug the third peripheral (i.e. Xbox) into the HDMI input on the soundbar, everything will run smoothly as you suggest. However, as I say this is not my forte so I could be totally out to lunch.
