Hi,
first of all, thanks for this plugin.
It has been working great for me until two days ago when I started having a strange issue.
I run Kodi on a Rpi4 (raspbian) connected via HDMI to a TV. The TV optical audio out goes into a home theater.
Occasionally I use a VPN (nordvpn) to watch programs in different languages.
To do this, I would start a program, go to the audio settings and change the audio channel from English to the new language. Until two days ago, for each language there were two different entries in the list, one AAC (or something similar, apologies but I cannot recall what it was) the other DD+.
I always picked the first one and had no issue.
Now the only available options are all DD+, so for instance I get
DD+ English (6 channels)
DD+ French (2 channels)
DD+ Ita (2 channels)
DD+ German (6 channels)
Now, the strange issue I have is that anything with 6 channels works but the 2 channels one have no sound at all.
As I say, until recently this was not an issue because I could always pick the "AAC" option, which worked fine but since those are gone I cannot figure out how to have sound from the DD+ 2 channels one.
I tried enabling and disabling the passthrough (all of them).
In the Kodi audio options the output device is set to HDMI - P (I imagine for pulse audio?)
Number of channels 2 (I tried to change this with no results)
As far as I can see, this seems to only occur with the Disney+ programs.
I would really appreciate any help to understand this issue.
