I don't have a soundbar but I have a CD changer that has an optical output that I feed to a MD deck. Make sure both devices are setup to use the optical link - it is often turned off by default. Make sure the optical cable is plugged in correctly - alignment is critical. Make sure the optical cable is intact - they are rather easy to break.
Edit: Make sure there are no sharp bends in the optical cable - I forget what the minimum radius is supposed to be but 4-6" ought to be in the ballpark.
