Dolby Atmos no longer working properly with the latest update in alpha Ring

I have the same issue since the latest alpha update that was released October 27th. Before I had bitstream out and dolby Atmos. Now only 7.1 PCM.

But my blu rays are working with dolby Atmos. I hope this get patched with the next update.

Wow - anyone alive for miles around?! This is still the official Xbox forum, correct?

Insider Preview page has release notes on windowscentral.com that say the Dolby Atmos issues were addressed on June 14 in the Alpha Ring.

Any idea when the July system update will be coming? Dolby Atmos is just so good on stereo headsets and speakers but pity that it only works after a fresh install of the DA app. Also, the half to one second audio lag is annoying.

Make sure your TV and AVR are compatible with Dolby Atmos: Both your TV and AVR need to support Dolby Atmos in order for the feature to work properly. Check the manufacturer's website to verify that your TV and AVR support Dolby Atmos.

- all of my devices support Dolby Atmos

Check the audio settings on your TV and AVR: Make sure that both your TV and AVR are set to the correct audio output mode for Dolby Atmos. For example, on your TV, you may need to set the audio output to "Bitstream" or "Dolby Digital Plus." On your AVR, you may need to set the audio input to "Dolby Digital Plus" or "Dolby Atmos."

- all settings are correct

Check for updates: Make sure that your TV, AVR, and Xbox are all up to date with the latest software. You may be able to check for updates in the settings menu of each device.

Check the audio settings on your Xbox: Go to the settings menu on your Xbox and select "Display & sound," then choose "Audio output." Make sure that "Dolby Atmos" is selected as the audio format and that "Audio passthrough" is enabled.

- all needed options are enabled;

Try a different HDMI port: If you're using an HDMI splitter or switch, try connecting your Xbox directly to your TV or AVR to see if the issue persists. If the issue is resolved when using a different HDMI port, there may be an issue with the splitter or switch.

I have a direct connection.

All other applications work properly (blue ray disc movies, games, Dolby access app, etc., deliver to receiver Dolby Atmos). Netflix and Apple TV also worked properly before.

"xbox not being able to play dolby atmos"

According to the Latest Alpha skip ahead Insider release notes this is still an issue the engineers are tracking and working on.

If the game does not support Dolby Atmos, then the audio is normal stereo. Microsoft are working on updating Dolby Atmos, where if the game does not support Dolby, the audio will be converted to simulate Dolby Atmos.
