Does this device support 4h UHD HDR content playback in Kodi and also audio passthrough (including Dolby Atmos and DTS-X)? I've seen that using a ethernet adapter is desirable, but is there someone using it with an AC router that is close to it?

Is everyone else having audio sync issues with this stick?
I'm setting one up for a friend. I've been a long time user of the first and second generation Fire TV's. Not at all impressed with this iteration, so far.
Netflix, Youtube, etc are fine, but nearly every video file I've tried in Kodi has required an audio offset. Typically, that's .05s, but VP9 encodes are more than double that. Nothing I've tried - (FireOS set to Stereo, Kodi set to Stereo, various permutations of frame rate switching) has made any difference whatsoever.
Meanwhile, the same files, played using Android TV Kodi, on the same Sony 4K TV have no such sync issues.
Anyone have any tips?

I get around 280mb/s over WiFi. But the WiFi router is right next to the FireTV stick, so that's a best case scenario.
