Pi 4 audio passthrough

I'm just curious as too why when you use audio pass through that it only supports AC3/Dolby Digital and DTS. No support for Dolby TrueHD audio or DTS HD audio, or atmos. Is there some limitation or has it not been implemented in a build yet for the pi 4?

Support for HD audio hasn't been implemented yet, and since general multi-channel audio is working (on par with RPi3) it's a much lower priority than the major video plumbing work that's in progress. I wouldn't expect it for some time yet.

Atmos with DD+ (EAC3) does work, but not with TrueHD as HD Audio is not yet done.

So what can or should I do to get correct Audio from Kodi? Disable passthrough? I mostly use TrueHD and nomally my Onkyo handles the sound?!

Thanks
