Bug: no dolby vision when using passthrough optical

I have to use passthrough optical as a workaround to my issue mentioned here:

Surround not working properly on Plex Android

so setting passthrough to optical seems to fix it. What does this do when I am not using an external audio system? The audio is still direct playing. Any negative effects?

What does enabling passthrough-> optical do, when you are using integrated audio system?

I have a problem with playing DTS and Atmos with my acoustic surface audio system(integrated in tv). However, if I enable optical passthrough it seems to solve the problem. I compare this by using the original Sony media player and check that the sound is the same. Now I wonder, what is the negative effect of enabling passthrough->optical when I use the integrated speakers?

and also reported by other users.

However, when using this workaround, it disables the support for dolby vision. If I disable passthrough, DV works flawlessly, but again, I get surround issues.

Also, not even one plex employee has ever taken the time to look at my threads. If this is the support I receive as a paying customer, I will take my business elsewhere. Please start taking your customers seriously when we report problems.

I also want to stress that none of these issues appear when using sonys android player with dlna in plex.
