Hello,
I'm trying to set up 5.1 output in kodi 17.5 Krypton on my Odroid C1+ with SB X-FI 5.1 USB DAC. When I go to Setup -> System -> Audio menu in kodi I don't have any analog output options, only S/PDIF. Therefore I can't specify number of channels and I have only stereo output.
Here is the output of aplay -l:
and here is my asound.conf:
In the kodi.log I have following log related to audio output:
As I understand m_deviceType: AE_DEVTYPE_IEC958 means S/PDIF output, but it should be AE_DEVTYPE_PCM, right?
Any clues how to specify analog output in kodi?
