Should we be leaving both players (omxplayer & the other one; forgetting what it's called right now) enabled in Settings?

The last good (smooth playback) build is #0324.

I'd like to confirm if this is a firmware or kodi issue.

As soon as there is any UI overlay playback is choppy with lots of drops. This doesn't happen with omxplayer.
Is #0323 the first build with this issue? Is #0322 okay?

I personally have a 5.1 setup, however it sounds like if I disable passthrough and set my speaker configuration at 7.1 I should get PCM for DTS-MA/TrueHD correct? This group is amazing and definitely is helping sales of the Pi2
Yes. If you select 7.1 for number of channels then Kodi will not downmix the audio, and the receiver should downmix to 5.1 (as long as it has been set to 5.1 or can autodetect the speakers connected).
If you select 5.1 you will still get the lossless audio, but Kodi will downmix to 5.1.
If you have passthrough enabled then the receiver will decode the lossy DTS track.
Try all 3 options and see which you prefer.
I imagine to tell the difference between the lossy and lossless audio you will need good ears and a good sound system. There shouldn't be a lot of difference.
Obviously if you do have a 7.1 system then the difference will be more noticeable (a whole extra two channels of audio).

try 2013 DTS Blu-Ray Demo Disc Vol.17:
- Dredd – DTS Sound Check DTS-HD MA 7.1
- The Hunger Games – DTS Sound Check DTS-HD MA 7.1
try with 5.1 setup speaker wih kodi decoding then with passthrough enabled to the receiver, there is big difference.You lose virtual back surround speakers and DTS / Ampi DSP optimization.

What platforms are you doing this test on?
Pi can't passthrough DTS-HD.
Other platforms can't decode DTS-HD.
So you'd need to test with Pi decoding the DTS-HD and another platform (e.g. Chromebox) passing through the DTS-HD.
You might want to set the Pi to 7.1 channels and let the receiver do the mixing to 5.1.
