Same issue as above where mkv files stored locally on my iOS device won't play audio anymore. These same files will play audio if I stream them from a network location.

We don't support AC3 playback in some locations. This should be covered by a few threads on this forum - sorry for the inconvenience.

It worked prior to 2.2.1 with locally stored files; although sometimes I had to start stream, and restart for it to work. Seems like a retrograde move. Are there plans to address this?

Search the forum for a solution, if you are in the USA.
