Android is still pretty much in its infancy as a media platform, so dirty hacks are sometimes needed for XBMC to work nicely on some chips.
Those hacks do not have their place in XBMC self, and will become obsolete as Android matures as an AV platform.

That's because there is no 5.1 on Android
You can have passthrough on many devices, but that's still technically 2.0

So I cannot get 5.1 on AFTV whether I use XBMC or SPMC playing a movie from Plex Media Server?
I have a Denon AVR-X3100w and when I play a movie with XBMC, it shows that it is 5.1 and Dolby or DTS depending on the movie.
The article at http://www.aftvnews.com/how-to-setup-plex-and-xbmc-for-surround-sound-audio/ also talks about getting 5.1 on AFTV with Plex.
Prior to using XBMC, a move playing directly from the Plex player clearly showed that it was not Dolby or DTS.
