You will be fine direct connecting even an old USB2 Hard Drive for playing back the highest bitrate 4K HDR Rips in existence.

NO - HD audio or Multichannel LPCM - audio source - needs to be eARC compatible. Does not matter if it is a Bluray Player, ODROID N2, Nvidia Shield etc.
It's irrelevant.
It's the eARC audio receiver or in the case TV the eARC TV that has to be eARC compatible.
On a related matter....
Sonos Arc owners need to be made aware that particular device currently cannot accept > 2.0 Multichannel LPCM audio until Sonos fix it with a Firmware update.
Apple TV 4K owners really need to beware with that supposedly eARC capable Sonos combo.

The only device capable of playing back Netflix Dolby Vision in Kodi with the Netflix addon is the latest Shield Pro correct? The odroid won't have the latest widevine licenses right?
Thanks

I expect the video Streaming focussed Google Sabrina dongle that will have a S905Y2 chipset in it will NOT have support for any type of HD audio like THD/Atmos.
It will very likely only support online streaming Atmos that being DD+/Atmos that Apps like Netflix and Prime Video support.
