Server Version#: 1.24.3.5033

Sony Firmware: PKG6.5066.06634NAA
Soundbar: Sony HT-Z9F
Since recently the DTS sound is not passing through the eARC, no isssue with EAC3, TruehHD 7.1, but DTS or DTS-MA not going at all.
I Have a Roku plugged in the same soundbar without any issue with any audio format all using HDMI passthrough, so I know the issue is not the soundbar, but something between the Plex Player and SONY TV. I know this issue had surface before in the 2020, 2019, so it seems to have resurfaced. Wondering if anybody knows if someone working on the issue either SONY side or Plex side. I just hate to have the passthrough disable in the player as it convert everything.

Found the issue after resetting all the audio to default. 1 of the setting was to not transmit encoded audio to the receiver directly, set it up correctly and everything is fine now.
