I'm forgetting the gory details at the moment but I did discover that Tidal Atmos, which is 15 (fixed) objects and one channel, LFE, so 9.1.6 didn't fold down as I expected, which is causing me to author up-remixes for 7.1.4, expecting playback on 7.1.4 or below, rather than 9.1.6. I think I posted about it here somewhere...
There are a bunch of downmix settings in Dolby, and Dolby Atmos. so your mileage could vary, depending on who did the encoding, and we have already established that streamers do their own Atmos encoding, with Apple not even using Atmos for their "Spatial Audio" stream via headphones.
