I just did a fresh install of Linux Mint 18 on my Intel NUC D34010WYK and installed Kodi 16.1 (I previously ran Mint 17 and Kodi 15, I think).
I’m experiencing a strange error with the audio. If I just start up Kodi with nothing else running, I get no audio. However, if I make sure something is running and outputting audio (like running a youtube movie in firefox) while I start Kodi, I get audio.
Debug log when starting Kodi with no other audio running:

I installed Kodi through the team-xbmc ppa;
$ dpkg -l | grep kodi
ii kodi 2:16.1~git20160425.1001-final-0xenial all Kodi Media Center (arch-independent data package)
ii kodi-bin 2:16.1~git20160425.1001-final-0xenial amd64 Kodi Media Center (binary data package)
