It seems the bug is fixed.. the shield is now a pretty good media player.

i wanted to see if maybe high-res 5.1 FLAC was fixed, the answer is yes.. at least with PlexForKodi, and Emby. here are my test results with 5.1 Flac at 24bit/96kHz.

Plex: Plays as 2.0 @ 48kHz.
PlexForKodi: Plays as 5.1 @ 96kHz. i don't know if it's possible to check bitrate with my hardware, is it possible within the app?
Emby: Plays as 5.1 @ 96kHz. again i don't know how to check bitrate.

so if i'm not mistaken, it looks like whatever prevented high-res 5.1 FLAC from working before is now fixed
