assuming windows, you need to make sure you have audio output in KODI set to wasapi passthrough and enable all available formats. Have you done that?

Did you enable DTS HD and TRUE HD in the Audio OutPut settings?

In Windows, did you right-click audio icon, select 'Playback devices', then pick correct device and hit 'Configure' button and set to 7.1?

Not sure, but I did that before choosing wasapi passthrough and enabling all available formats in Kodi.

This thread has helped me with my Windows machine to get Audio working http://forum.kodi.tv/showthread.php?tid=194926

My settings in the Audio section are always set to "Directsound:default" never used the Wasapi passthrough. The EDID override also helped as the Amp was always seeing the Television audio instead of the Kodi audio.

Here is a capture of my settings: http://screencast.com/t/sw4YyevKbp
