It does not do natively HDMI but uses a converter chip. To get DTS-HD / TrueHD working it needs a firmware update on latest version.

I'll do the HDMI firmware update and I'll let you know.

Thanks @fritsch

Hi @fritsch here again recovering this issue...

To be honest I must confess that once updated the HDMI firmware I was using Windows 10 till now.

Now I´ve installed Ubuntu again, this time 20.04.1 LTS but even having the most recent HDMI firmware installed in my NUC I´m not able to play DTS-HD or TrueHD tracks. I´m always getting "Decoder OFF" in my reciever. If I play videos with DTS, AC-3 or E-AC-3 tracks, no problem...

In Windows I can play videos with DTS-HD or TrueHD tracks without problem checking it in my AVR correctly... But if I play the same videos in Ubuntu I can´t and always appears "Decoder OFF" not hearing anything.

I have this configuration in Ubuntu adn Kodi:

The script that I´m using to run Kodi is this:
Code:

#!/bin/bash
systemctl --user stop pulseaudio.socket
systemctl --user stop pulseaudio.service
KODI_AE_SINK=ALSA kodi
systemctl --user start pulseaudio.socket
systemctl --user start pulseaudio.service

When I run it I get these messages:
Code:

Cannot connect to server socket err = No such file or directory
Cannot connect to server request channel
jack server is not running or cannot be started
JackShmReadWritePtr::~JackShmReadWritePtr - Init not done for -1, skipping unlock

And this is the log obtained: https://paste.kodi.tv/afajegolut.kodi
