Kodi 19.3 seems to have improved the dropout problem with high bitrate Dolby TrueHD. The train scene in Zootopia is now working where it once dropped out.(the geezers firing out steam in the snow)
However during that same scene it is now dropping out in places where it did not previously. Only a couple of occasions and much more subtle. It is a vast improvement but still not perfect.

Did some more Windows 11 tests with the Zootopia sample:
Kodi 19.3, passthrough audio, Atmos: audio dropouts at around 12 seconds.
MPC-BE, passthrough audio, Atmos: no dropouts. plays smoothly.
VLC, no passthrough audio, stereo: no dropouts. plays smoothly.

This is a separate issue from stuttering. There will be a new build that includes it but it has no positive or negative effect on the stuttering.
EDIT: In fact, latest Android build using RAW path already fixes it.
