Just use a DIGITAL-VIDEO audio extractor which are cheap and easily available from Amazon. I use one and it works fine.

The V4 Ultimate Expansion Board has high quality analogue audio out. Not too far away now...

Se  EXTERNAL LINK and go the V4 Ultimate Board tab  if you are interested.

you can use a cheap DAC from ebay and a ribbon cable. i don't know if the pinout is posted somewhere but you can contact me on discord for details.

and just to make this clear: this is generally a pretty harmless modification, but taking the V4 apart and hooking random third party stuff up to it not covered by the warranty provided by the Apollo team. this is done at your own risk.
