Chromecast with Google TV: cannot use Bluetooth headphones

Server Version#: 1.23.4.4805
Player Version#: 8.20.0.26605

When using headphones connected via Bluetooth to my Chromecast with Google TV, I’m unable to watch any content with more than 2 audio channels. The failure varies depending on whether HDMI passthrough is enabled.

If passthrough is enabled, the video plays but there’s simply no audio output, and no errors in the logs.

If passthrough is disabled, attempting to play content results in a generic error message in the UI, a fatal error in the logs, and the content does not play. I’ll attach relevant Plex logs from the Chromecast.
