Is 5.1 sound in Kodi without pulseaudio possible ?
Outside of Kodi 5.1 sound is working fine, playing the same video for example in mpv gives 5.1 sound without any problems.
In Kodi however, if video has stereo audio it works fine, even resampling to 5.1 works fine.
But if video has 5.1 sound then it's terrible, sound is distorted, volume is too low, hard to describe in words, it's just bad and unwatchable.
I've installed Pulseaudio but the pulseaudio device isn't showing in Kodi, maybe I need to compile Kodi and enable pulseaudio there ?
I'll certainly try that but I'm just curious if anyone else has the same problem without pulseaudio.
