Hello,
I performed a fresh install on my HTPC:
Kodi Version: 16.1 Git: c327c53
Ubuntu Version: 16.04.1 LTS (kernel: Linux 4.4.0-53-generic)
Hardware: Intel Core i5-3450, 8GB RAM,
GPU: AMD Radeon 6450 chip
I performed the install as per the install guide. Fresh Ubuntu install, then kodi install using ppa (adding the repository, ensuring that kodi is not already installed, then classic install method).
I totally removed PulseAudio since I won’t be using the desktop applications
I set Kodi settings to enable audio passthrough.
Everything is working nice with DTS and AC3 sound, but nothing happens with DTS-HD or TrueHD using HDMI
My amp Yamaha RX-V773 is DTS-HD and TrueHD capable, and when I try to play a movie with DTS-HD or TrueHD, it only displays Decoder off
Here’s a debug I just generated after restarting kodi:

While playing a movie, if I display the info, I can see that the audio is TrueHD but no sound.
I can’t get why this is not working, I read a lot of threads but can’t resolve the issue. My Linux level may be unsufficient…
Thanks for any help.
