I use chromecast 2 device in the hdmi port of the sony blu ray home theater. Streaming from my phone. Tried a lot of settings and cannot get 5.1 audio on Netflix, neither disney+. Only works with Google play movies app.
- Setting 1: if I let chromecast audio settings as auto detection, netflix app does not recognize there is 5.1 audio available and only streams stereo channels. Sony bdv shows that is receiving 2.0 audio.
- setting 2: if I change chromecast audio settings to ac3/eac3, netflix 5.1 audio option appear in the app. If I choose that audio track instead of stereo track, no sound is reproduced!?!?! Yes, it becomes mute!?!?! And most intriguing is that sony bdv shows it is receiving 5.1 audio.
How can I fix it?
