[NUC] Unable to get 7.1 channel audio output on NUC Kit NUC7PJYH
Resolution
To fix this issue, follow below steps:
- Connect the audio amplifier to rear audio port on the NUC.
- This is because the front 3.5 mm jack only supports stereo output.
- Install latest audio driver for the NUC7JPYH.
- If using third party application to setup the 7.1 channel audio output, there's a setting in the application that needs to be changed in order for bit streaming to work. In this case, do the following:
- In Settings, go to Play Settings > Video, Audio, Subtitles > More Settings.
- In Audio Settings, set Output mode to Non-decoded high-definition audio to extend.
