I thought I was alone, but there are a few other reports of this since 1.3.0 release https://forums.plex.tv/discussion/comment/1434280#Comment_1434280

Using 3rd card yields no sound, using 1st and 2nd gives 2.0 regardless of a 5.1 source and sink.

I've checked the media file using media player classic and it shows:

Did the base openELEC version used get changed in 1.3.0 from the previous version? Maybe that's a side effect?

It seems to be an ALSA issue, given that this happens when starting playback

Gets more interesting, tried the speaker-test app with the -c 6 option and only one channel actually produced any sound. Which matches what amixer says (mono) but it makes me wonder if things are even worse, that it's not even 2.0 sound, it's actually 1.0 (!!!)

LongChair commented 7 years ago

it seems that it fails setting up the channel mapping :

It could be indeed some issue with LE core, I think kernel was updated in LE.

LongChair commented 7 years ago

I just tried our current ongoing distro (unreleased yet). and i seem to have different behavior :

If I select HDMI device type , 5.1 Channels and AutoSelect device, then 5.1 plays without problem on my RPI3 with an AVR
If I select explictely the device to the iec958 one, then i seem to have sound only on 3 channels, like the SL & SR channels come on the FR / FL channels.
