You are likely affected by this bug I filed. Very little activity on this BR.

Note- I have not tried kernel 3.16x, yet. Maybe it got fixed.. Dedicated 77xx cards dont seem to play well on oss and pure alsa. If you install pulse audio it should work for ac3 and dts5.1 core pass through thanks to fritsch's patches to pulse.
Thank you for your reply. I do seem to be affected by this same bug. I've upgraded my kernel to 3.16.3 and have not experienced any improvement.

I could not see anything playing in the xbmc logfile. The rest looks okay. Also enable debugging, play some samples and then post the log.
I greatly appreciate you taking a look at the logs! The debug log is below. I played 4 files in this order:
- .mp3 file that resulted in stuttering/choppy, barely discernible audio.
- .mkv containing 6-channel DTS audio stream that was passed through properly and played fine. VDPAU disabled
- same DTS .mkv as above resulted in no sound whatsoever. VDPAU enabled
- .mkv containing 6-channel DTS-HD Master Audio stream that provided no sound but a flickering "DTS" on the receiver. VDPAU disabled

I think you need to have a look at the bug gfisher pointed out. I lack deeper kernel knowledge to fix this issue.
