I did a test with 11.0.1 instead of 11.0.3 on the S905 box and with 11.0.1 the channel mapping is correct.

Good news! The test build above fixes the problem. (I've only tested with 5.1 output)

I would be happy to see an official release for PI4 and AMlogic as well.

I guess a lot of users of 11.0.3 are affected from this bug.

I've installed (fresh installation) LibreELEC 11.0.3 on an AMLogic S905 TV-Box (p201) and also on Raspberry PI 4.

Because my Amp does not support newer audio formats I can not pass-through them.

I've set in the audio settings that I have 5.1 channels.

When Kodi decodes 5.1 or 7.1 audio data and outputs them as PCM to HDMI the channel mapping is wrong.

On the S905 box, the output to the amp is as I would have set 4.0 or 4.1 channels; the center is sent to FL and FR.

On the PI 4, the output is as would have set 3.1 chennels; RL goes to FL and RR to FR.

I tried the different audio devices from the menu and also with 'fixed' setting or 7.1. It's always as written above.

This is not an issue with the amp connected to LE/Kodi or the files I play. I have an old PI 1 with LE 9.2 and there all the audio signals are sent to the correct speaker.

What is the problem and how can it be fixed?
