Intel VAAPI howto with Leia v18 nightly based on Ubuntu 18.04 server
Passthrough: Passthrough
PCM: PCM

If you see DTS-HD, TrueHD, DTS, AC3, DD+, etc. -> passthrough is active.
Else: We decode it to PCM -> you see PCM.

If you don't hear the difference (which is intented with a lossless decoder) keep passthrough disabled and enable "Sync playback to display" and "Adjust Refreshrate to match video". The first will sync to display's clock and change audio so that you get smooth video and smooth audio. With this setting enabled, PT will be disabled.

For your webbrowser, make yourself familiar with: .asoundrc and put such a file into your home - don't miss the "." infront of it. Basically you need to set your default device, nothing else.
First decide what functions / features you expect from a system. Then decide for the hardware. Don't waste your money on crap.
