I know that cross posting is frowned upon, but I suspect that my problem may be pretty NUC specific so I am hoping that I might get some solution/ideas here.
My setup is very simple, i5 NUC hooked to a Samsung TV through HDMI:
System: Intel i5 NUC D54250WYK
Windows 8.1 64 bit
Display and audio: Samsung F6500 TV
Connections: NUC to TV via mini HDMI to HDMI cable
XBMC: Frodo 12.3 (same problem in 12.2 though)
TV audio specs:
Dolby Digital Plus / Dolby Pulse
DTS Studio Sound
DTS Premium Audio 5.1
3D Sound available
Down Firing + Full Range Speaker Type
Problem: HD/DTS audio doesn’t work and causes severe video stuttering in XBMC. If I set to analog, all works fine
Other stuff:
1) I updated all drivers and bios
2) I tried to solve the problem via the wiki "Windows Settings for Audio engine" and noticed that in step 5 my "Encoded Formats" list is empty. However as far as I can tell, DTS audio works fine in VLC without XBMC. (As a sidenote: how can I tell 100% that audio is being outputted as DTS, dolby etc through VLC?)
3) WASAPI or directsound makes no difference. Both don’t work.

Any ideas please? I`d love not to be limited to analog audio.......
Thanks!
