Playback stops when audio changes from stereo to 5.1

[bacobart]

Just noticed this: I have two xbian setups, one connected to a samsung tv, the other to a philips tv and harman kardon receiver. When connected to the samsung tv and playing a file that switches audio channels (like GoT), the playback doesn't stop, but the video is scrambled for a bit (kinda like when zapping through a file). So it seems XBMC (omxplayer?) is choking on the audio switch but is able to continue. On the other setup (with philps tv/hk receiver) the playback just stops and goes back to the XBMC series list. So it seems that xbmc gets confused of the audio tracks change from stereo to 5.1, TRIES to adapt (but is kinda choking in the process), succeeds on one setup, and fails on the other. Might be because it's trying to reinitialize hardware and succeeds on one and fails on the other?

This was tested with the exact same file, streamed from the same nas with the same protocol (shared library setup).
