No there is no analog output plugged on my Mi Box S (that provides only SPDIF/mini Toslink and HDMI audio output)
1.
I am quite sure that the very first time I ran Kodi on my Mi Box target the audio passthrough radiobutton was proposed and that I set it.
I replaced also 2.0 output by 5.1 but I did not set the output types (Dolby Digital, Dolby Digital Plus, DTS)
IN that state I was unable to get by Dolby Digital right decoded even from a .iso ripped DVD=> I got only Progic II
2. I tried to modify Mi Box Android TV audio parameter from PCM (initial value) to AUTO and back again to PCM
I transcoded the .iso to AC3 5.1 m4v with Handbrake but got Dolby Prologic II as well
I have the feeling that the audio passthrough disappeared while I used the Mi Box.
3. Actually because the Dolby Digital no well decoded bored me I played a little bit with my target (I have some android internals knowledge) :
3.1 - I deployed ES File explorer and used it to deploy Logitech Keyboard Plus apk from USB key in order to be be able to use a french Pc keyboard on Android TV (that is because my hands requests a large keyboard after having worked 30 years on computers
). The strange thing that happened is that ES Explorer requested debug mode and USB debugging mode) => the keyboard works fine
3.2 - I took the challenge to be able to access my target with adb through WiFi with no former USB access in order to run scrcpy (see https://www.genymotion.com/blog/open-sou...irelessly/). I reached this goal (I think adb could not be started through WiFi in older versions because before "adb tcpip PORT " command should have been executed through USB. I founf this fun : it works less or more (lag and stalls on Full HD videos copying).
I did not write down everything I did but I factory reset my target and when I ran Kodi on it the audio passthrough button was not displayed.
I can try to factory reset it again (I wrote down my configuration process, it is not so long because I did not deploy lots of things), I have time to investigate, I kept the logs of non working and working use cases
It would be interesting to have feedback from users with similar troubles that try to activate both add-ons as I did, even I you are thinking there is no relationship
The good news is : your DTS sample is well decoded with my current system.
Let me know if it is interesting for you to investigate deeper my case.
