I had this problem and couldn't figure it out after trying all the suggestions.
Had a mess about in the android box menus and went to Sounds > Digital Sounds and changed from Auto detection to HDMI and WORKED FIRST TIME!!!
Hope this can help someone else!

Hello.
I have a problem with passthrough DTS. My TV Sony KD-49X8309c (android 6.0) is connected with receiver (Pioneer VSX-820) by digital cable SPDIF, because my receiver does not support HDMI ARC.
When I play movie (.mkv) with DTS or Dolby Digital on standard Sony player, TV properly sending to signal to receiver.
When I play movie (.mkv) with Dolby Digital on KODI 17.3, TV properly sending to signal to receiver.
While I play movie (.mkv) with DTS on KODI 17.3, Kodi can not play movie. On TV appears black screen and nothing happens.
When I switch off "DTS capable .." in settings->audio output->
Video is playing correctly, but receiver can not correctly recognize audio.
Can I count on Your help?

Your devie is horribly broken - just read the first post ...
Enable AC3
Enable AC3 Transcoding
Disable DTS
Set speaker to 2.0
First decide what functions / features you expect from a system. Then decide for the hardware. Don't waste your money on crap.

The main problem is with my TV (SoC) not in Kodi?

Jep - it fought for the worst firmware award :-) - some say it has won.
