hdmi_channel_allocation() tries to find a HDMI channel allocation that matches the number channels in the playback stream and contains only speakers that the HDMI sink has reported as available via EDID. If no such allocation is found, 0 (stereo audio) is used. Using CA 0 causes the audio causes the sink to discard everything except the first two channels (front left and front right). However, the sink may be capable of receiving more channels than it has speakers (and then perform downmix or discard the extra channels), in which case it is preferable to use a CA that contains extra channels than to use CA 0 which discards all the non-stereo channels. Additionally, it seems that HBR (HD) passthrough output does not work on Intel HDMI codecs when CA is set to 0 (possibly the codec zeroes channels not present in CA). This happens with all receivers that report a 5.1 speaker mask since a HBR stream is carried on 8 channels to the codec. Add a fallback in the CA selection so that the CA channel count at least matches the stream channel count, even if the stream contains channels not present in the sink speaker descriptor. Thanks to GrimGriefer at OpenELEC forums for discovering that changing the sink speaker mask allowed HBR output.
