Re: YouTube app now only outputs stereo pcm
Have you checked that surround sound is an option within the app itself?
You can check following the instructions here: https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/11904456?hl=en-GB
Basically if the option doesn't exist then you are stuck with stereo output. This will likely be a Google decision, perhaps they have disabled it for a while why they sort out some of the other playback issues they have had with the app on Q?
