Does anybody have a definitive settings guide on how to get Dolby Atmos working in Kodi's video player on the Shield TV Pro?

I have an LG TV + Soundbar and when using Netflix via the Shield it's perfectly fine, but when watching movies through Kodi I can't get a Dolby Atmos signal through to the Soundbar.

Any ideas?

I couldn’t get Kodi to output Atmos to my LG C9 even the TV supports Atmos on the Shield from Plex, Netflix etc, as soon as I plugged the Shield into my Denon Kodi started outputting Atmos, I think maybe Kodi doesn’t output Atmos unless your TV / Soundbar edid reports TrueHD compatible.   

I don't have any problems with Kodi and Atmos (lossy or lossless) on a Shield 2019 attached directly to an LG C9 (playing local content).
