Nvidia Shield Sends Dolby Atmos To Front Speakers

An Nvidia Shield Pro connected to a Denon AVR-X1800H is producing Dolby Digital Plus with Dolby Atmos (EAC3) audio only from the front speakers, while Dolby 5.1 and DTS/DTS-HD play correctly. The user reports Shield Dolby processing off, Kodi 21.2 passthrough enabled, and Denon recognizing "Dolby Atmos – DD+"; toggling transcoding and passthrough did not resolve the issue. This suggests an interoperability or decoding problem.
