When I have my audio device set to "Digital Surround 7.1" as it should be, passthrough will not work in any app I test (kodi and vlc). My options are here in this image: <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://i.imgur.com/3zkMsGy.png">http://i.imgur.com/3zkMsGy.png</a> I do have the passthrough settings checked as can be seen in this image: <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://i.imgur.com/N7KMCZc.png">http://i.imgur.com/N7KMCZc.png</a> If I downgrade my settings to the "Digital Stereo" option then passthrough will work for some reason. Is this a limitation/regression in pulseaudio? Or do I simply have some configuration set wrong? <div class="moz-cite-prefix">On 03/01/2015 11:32 PM, Xamindar wrote: </div> <blockquote cite="mid:54F4122A.1060507@gmail.com" type="cite"> <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"> Hi Pulseaudio list! With a recent update to my Arch system, audio passthrough has stopped working in Kodi. Kodi no longer shows the passthrough options anymore either. Here is what I have which has been working fine up until recently. <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"> -7.1 audio out HDMI (nvidia card) to an Onkyo receiver. -KDE4 running as my DE with pulseaudio configured and working. -Pulseaudio set up as the correct 7.1 audio (even get them all in kde) with passthrough items all checked in pavucontrol. I was getting passthrough on the files that had supported codecs and kodi was handling everything else. Then when I wasn't in Kodi audio was great in the DE with all other applications. This set up was working great up until recently. It's as if pulseaudio has stopped supporting passthrough or my config got overwritten by a default. Anyway, a recent update broke all this and the passthrough options have vanished from the kodi options. The closest I have gotten is setting sound configuration to stereo in pavucontrol and then the passthrough options magically appear in kodi again. But still no sound on passthrough stuff and this option is unacceptable anyway as I don't want to reduce everything else to stereo just to get passthrough working in one app. Any ideas what went wrong here? Is there a known bug in pulseaudio 6.0 that causes this breakage? Thanks. </blockquote> </body> </html>
