Intel VAAPI howto with Leia v18 nightly based on Ubuntu 18.04 server
Yes.

For your 2.0 pcm wise setup. Set channels to 2.0, disable DTS, enable AC3 and AC3 transcoding. Everything multi channel will be output as AC3 while the audio is (if needed) slightly altered without you being able to hear that.

If you don't want to sync to display, disable that and reenable DTS. DTS will be back, but "sometimes" (if needed, e.g. a/v sync getting worse) you hear a slight drop. That's it.

For completeness: For live TV streams AC3 passthrough was disabled in favor to not buffer a whole lot of stuff with those unstable streams. Might come back one day ... but not high priority at that moment. Stability > features.
First decide what functions / features you expect from a system. Then decide for the hardware. Don't waste your money on crap.
