All the player plays fine audio 5.1 , but not 7.1. Whay can I do? Thankyou

If you change the Digital Audio Out setting on the TV to Auto 1 or Auto 2, does it make a difference?

It is set to auto 1, if i change to auto 2 instead of dolby digital 2.0 when i try to play a 7.1, sonos app shows stereo pcm. the format 5.1 shows in sonos app 5.1 format.
