Audio passthrough via optical not working

  • Hi dev experts!

    My device is Sammix R95s motherboard info BX905X_V1.0 (2016-08-17) MS-M1 E198407
    CPU type S905X, 2G Ram
    Resolution 1080p, Refresh rate Default setting
    Installation is external
    I am currently using LibreELEC-S905.arm-9.0-devel-1522452099.img.gz
    The DTB file used is gxl_p212_2g.dtb

    I would like some help on figuring out why the toslink(optical) is not working . Under android 6 the optical works.

    Now when I try under LibreELEC I see the red light and no audio what I tried so far.

    My setting are:
    Audio passthrough on

    Dolby Digital (AC3) capable receiver on

    DTS cable receiver on

    ...

    Sync playback to display off

    What I have noticed when I set audio passthrough to on and then play a test file I get no more audio via hdmi. When I set passthrough back to off I don't get my audio via hdmi I need to reboot the box.

    GDPR-2 do you think the optical out issue is because I need my own dtb file?


    Big thanks :thumbup:
