That is a complicated setup with a flaw. If you would try this with (for example) a PS4 you would get 2.0 audio only and no 3D support.
A splitter will gather info of both your projector & AVR and gives feedback to your source, which is a selection of the lesser of both feature sets.
You're lucky team Kodi on the Pi2 let's you state your resolution, number of audio channels and 3D
I have this:
Dr Hdmi has the EDID sinked in of my AVR + Projector so the source gets the right info of my setup (full HD, 3D, 7.1 audio, Dolby TrueHD & DTS-HD Master)
Another benefit of this setup is that you don't need to have your AVR on if you just want to watch some TV by its internal speakers. (My AVR has a passthrough for audio when in standby but still runs hot.... another design flaw
)
I only need to set the port of my switch if i want to watch a source (Projector, TV and AVR are only using 1 input).
