I did not figure out how to use Blackhole but Loopback seems to fix my issue with glitchy aggregate devices in Apple Music.Or if you don't want to pay for Loopback, Existential Audio's Blackhole will work too

That link doesn't work for me. I get "Feedback Not Found"
Can you say where com.apple.audioSystemSettings.plist is located and what you put in it to get 5.1.4?
Thanks!
You will find it in /Library/Preferences/Audio
This is the extract of it that relates to my 5.1.4 setup on my rogueamoeba virtual audio device
For instance the outputs on my card are mapped like this
1->left speaker(1)
2->right speaker(2)
3->subwoofer(5)
4->center speaker(6)
5->surround left speaker(3)
6->surround right speaker(4)
7->height front left(13)
8->height front right(15)
9->height back left(52)
10->height back right(54)
in the developper doc, it shows that the 5.1.4 setup is encoded by this value
kAudioChannelLayoutTag_Atmos_5_1_4 = (195U<<16) | 10
which I think is 12779530 but I could not find this value in the file, so not sure it is important.
Let me know if that works for you.

I'm not seeing this part
Maybe the formatting didn't survive the post. Maybe share the file
