Let me know and I'll see if I can help, I've had this issue and I just had to replace the media with a more Roku friendly format, one example being the resolution set to 1080p so now the Roku won't render 4K. Set the Roku to 4k and the TV to 4k it will work. If your TV is only 1080p then you need 1080p media not 4k. But I'm only guessing based off the information in your post.
The TV is 1080p and stereo audio. I understand video needs to be 1080p for a 1080p TV, but the video and audio is being transcoded form 4k 7.1 to 1080p stereo via GPU on Jellyfin server 10.8.7 successfully. When I upgrade the server transcoding no longer occurs and the Roku reports it can direct play 7.1 audio even though it is statically set to 1080p stereo. The audio is ACC, AC3, 7.1, 5.1. I haven't tried any other codecs.
Edit:
Ubuntu 22.04.3 VM on TrueNAS SCALE with i3-9100G, GTX 1660 GPU, and 2 CPU cores with 8GB RAM assigned to the VM.
I'm a network engineer so my home network is very overbuilt for home use (Aruba APs and switch). The Roku is a 4k stick so it can only use wifi, but the signal strength is strong.
