I have a Samsung Smart TV (from 2011) and the Bose Soundlink Mini. I do not use them together nor do I think they would work well together. though, I don't remember my TV having bluetooth. Nor does my Soundlink take an audio-in line from the TV. Maybe newer TVs have bluetooth. If they do, it would work great!
I use the Sounlink for quality sound from my Mac Mini. It is connect to the computer via bluetooth which is nice that it does not require one of the few USB ports and the audio port can still be free for headphones.
