I noticed my receiver showed fs:96KHz, so I thought the sample rate might be too high for the RPI2 to handle in 5.1. I found a work around that allows multi-channel files to play mostly correctly. If I set the System - Settings, Audio output to the following, I get stutter-free 5.1 playback with DVDPlayer. PAPlayer still stutters though.
Read this thread. If you update firmware manually it should fix the issue. Fix should be in future OpenELEC updates.
