Thanks for the build. I had been running Kodi 18.9 MVC build, am on a VM with easy restore so did a full install.
The behaviour with this build was different. Summary of how the different builds behaved for me below:
18.9 - Receiver display says stereo - Centre and hence speech completely missing
Fallback To Hints Build - Receiver display says 4.0 (FL-FR-SL-SR) - Actually 5.0 (Could be FL-FR-C-Mono Surround) - Surrounds seem to play a copy of centre
Bluray player with original disc - Correctly detected and plays as PCM 3.0 (FL-FR-C)
It seems a 4.0 output was intended (Although as FL-FR-SBL-SBR):

The receiver I have does not seems to support that channel config so that might explain the weird output and detection as 4.0 (FL-FR-SL-SR). List of supported input channel configs (Some will likely be bitstream only):
