    The Roku client queries the number of channels available from the Roku OS. If your receiver is reporting 8 (for 7.1) the that’s what’s passed to the server, and assuming the codecs are supported it will be passed through without transcoding.

    It’s possible that your receiver is not reporting the correct information to the Roku OS, or something else has gone wrong.

    It would be possible to override what’s Roku reported to us within the user settings. And even allow the user to select what codecs their receiver supports rather than relying on the reported support.  Plenty of opportunity for a user to mess things up and get no sound with that, however - so if it was implemented I suspect it would have to go under an advanced option.
