Simple: You can't do this on the NAS. The audio signal has to come from the TV to the soundbar. This is done by HDMI ARC (Audio Return Channel if TV and soundbar does support it. Alternate approach is using a optical TOSlink from the TV to the soundbar.

Of course if you are using a receiver or media player, the cabling could connect to those devices (not directly to the TV).
But as schumaku says, not from the NAS - it is just streaming over it's ethernet connection.
