Go to the settings and switch "tunneled playback" setting it should help with your issue.

Tunneled playback did not work for me, multichannel audio won't be downmixed even I have forced stereo output set on my TV.

@tukez you should try check multiple audio settings on your TV. I was able to configure my TV(Samsung tizen) To have good audio when playing videos with multichannels. Other option is to switch player from exo to libvlc in the settings

Those solutions are android Stremio specific. I have the same issue on Windows PC, where I have only stereo speakers and streams which are 5.1 are not mixed into stereo. There is no option for Tunelled playback, nor there is any option to switch player from exo to libvlc. Any advice?

I have a projector with android stremio. Exo and libvlc with and without tunneling have the same issue.
