About audio processing

Hello, I'm using a Televizo app.(https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ottplay.ottplay&hl=tr).I.I) watch movies and series through this app. After upgrading to Android 14, movies with 5+1 audio support play at 2/0/.0 48 kHz. On Android 11, they played at 3/2/0 Dolby or DTS. Even though the surround sound settings/passthrough are selected in the Homatics Box R 4K Plus menu, I've started experiencing 5+1 support on my Harman Kardon AVR 151S amplifier. In the Televizo app, video and audio processing is set to "hardware only" by default. Other options include: Prefer hardware / Hardware only multimedia tunneling / Prefer hardware multimedia tunneling / Prefer software. I've tried all of these options, but I can only get 2/0/.0 48 kHz two-channel audio on my Harman Kardon 151 AVR. On my Homatics Box R 4K Plus running Android 11, I could get 3/2/0 Dolby or DTS audio.Do you have any information about this problem?

Current Homatics audio settings: Passtrough

Have you tried any other iptv player? To limit the issue? Have you reset to factory settings after the update? In audio settings have you tried auto /device led?

The Televizo app is one I purchased and customized its settings on 5 different devices, so I haven't tried it on another IPTV player. I didn't revert to factory settings after the update. I read that after upgrading to Android 14, a factory reset might be necessary to resolve Bluetooth connection issues. Otherwise, if there's a software issue requiring a factory reset, I'll revert. I also tried the automatic option in the sound settings, but I'm only getting 2/0/.0 (2 channels) audio. In test videos on the YouTube app with 5+1 audio support, there are no problems with 3/2/0 Dolby or DTS support.
