Does the Fire TV Stick support audio passthrough in XBMC? I've tried checking the passthrough option in the advanced audio settings, but I don't get any sound- my receiver's signal indicator flickers a lot, though (it also thinks that it's receiving PCM 2 channel).
Thanks!

Yes it should be able to use passthrough audio, but it will not be able to bitstream (ie, TrueHD or DTS-HD)

Alright, awesome. Do you happen to know which settings to enable? Enabling Passthrough and AC3 doesn't seem to work on its own for me. (Playing a plain, old .ac3 5.1 surround file results in no sound)
EDIT: By the way, I'm using Gotham 13.2 for ARM on the homepage on an unrooted Fire TV Stick
