Since the last server update the Xbox 360 app cannot FF/RW (some) video files, and any video file that is using .mp3 is wildly out of sync.
Are the folks at Plex aware of the issue, and will it be addressed?
It won’t be addressed. The app has been abandoned. Just look at the date of the last update for the Xbox 360 app.
Exact same issue - so basically there will be no fix for this, ever?
What are we paying for? How is this still not fixed?
The following command currently works on plex media server on linux - it will remove mp3 from the xbox 360 direct stream profile.
gawk -i inplace ‘{gsub(/codec=“h264” audioCodec=“aac,mp3”/,“codec=“h264” audioCodec=“aac””);gsub(/codec=“h264,mpeg4” audioCodec=“aac,ac3,eac3,mp3,pcm”/,“codec=“h264,mpeg4” audioCodec=“aac,ac3,eac3,pcm””);gsub(/codec=“h264” audioCodec=“aac,ac3,eac3,mp3,mp2,pcm”/,“codec=“h264” audioCodec=“aac,ac3,eac3,mp2,pcm””);gsub(/codec=“mpeg4,msmpeg4v3,mjpeg” audioCodec=“mp3,ac3,eac3,mp2,pcm”/,“codec=“mpeg4,msmpeg4v3,mjpeg” audioCodec=“ac3,eac3,mp2,pcm””);print}’ “/usr/lib/plexmediaserver/Resources/Profiles/Xbox 360 App.xml”; gawk -i inplace ‘{gsub(/codec=“mpeg4” audioCodec=“ac3,mp3”/,"codec=“mpeg4” audioCodec=“ac3"”);print}’ “/usr/lib/plexmediaserver/Resources/Profiles/Xbox 360.xml”

The 360 app is abandoned. It has not been updated since August 2015.

I realised, which is why I came up with this fix 
Sooooo… they’ve updated the server and it’s no longer compatible with the XB360 app? Wunderbar.
The suggested audio fix from Wichall disables mp3 audio for video streams to an xbox360 client
To apply this fix on windows, go find your plex xb360 player profiles (likely in C:\Program Files (x86)\Plex\Plex Media Server\Resources\Profiles)
As Wichall shows above, there are two files to change :- “Xbox 360 App.xml” and “Xbox 360.xml”
Edit both of these files and wherever you see a “VideoProfile” line that cointains “mp3” in audioCodec, remove the “mp3” …
for example this :-
<VideoProfile container="mp4,mov" codec="h264,mpeg4" audioCodec="aac,ac3,eac3,mp3,pcm" />
needs to become this :-
<VideoProfile container="mp4,mov" codec="h264,mpeg4" audioCodec="aac,ac3,eac3,pcm" />
DONT do this for the “MusicProfile” lines.
