I think I'm going to go purchase a gun so I can shoot myself. Despite looking through the menus and checking all my settings MULTIPLE times, it was a setting on the receiver. Apparently it wasn't set to the correct "auto" mode. I switched into that while a Bluray was playing in PowerDVD and Dolby Digital kicked in. Tested with XBMC, turned back on the AC3 and DTS settings, and whaddya know...it worked beautifully. Tested with AC3 and DTS encoded movies, and they sounded great. On my way to work so I don't have time to test more things or really crank the audio and give it a good listen, but I solved my problem. I think my new motto is "NEVER rule out stupidity". Thanks for the input, guys. And good luck to the rest of you.

Just an FYI, since these might still help others, here are the threads on avsforum I've been following:

ATI Radeon HD 5800, 5700 and 5600 Series Thread: Supporting HD Audio Bitstreaming!

EDID Overrides to solve bitstreaming issues for ATI 5xxx's - Note: This is strictly related to bitstreaming of HD audio such as TrueHD, but it still sounded applicable.
