I hope this fixes the 5.1 surround issue when docked. Basically 5.1 will not work through ARC, it has to be eARC because Nintendo doesn't want to pay Dolby for codecs. They will only use linear PCM 5.1 which is very limiting and only certain newer setups can take advantage of it. Many people might not even know they aren't getting proper surround because their receiver is upscaling the audio into Dolby Surround. But it's really just stereo playing out of the rear speakers.
