Even if it shows "Atmos" on TV it still plays only stereo sound. At least that happens to me and everyone who has talked about this issue on several Github issues.

There are other issues too, but these are what I had open right now.
There are few comments that first say that it works, but then realise that it actually is not playing anything but stereo.
TV takes EAC3 in, but when it puts it through HDMI ARC it ends up being stereo sound that does not even show Dolby Digital+ on amplifier. TV itself has stereo speakers so you can't really see this issue without multichannel amplifier.
EDIT: And to be clear: Playing video that does not need HLS (no remuxing etc) at all plays EAC3 and AC3 fine.
