Comment (by jyavenard):

 It's in reply to "and possibly what audio comes out of the speakers too,
 although I am unable to test this) only sticks to what the audio format is
 at the moment the file playback is started, and doesn't change when the
 audio itself does, mid-program."
 Which is an assumption on how the system behaves without even verifying
 that it's indeed the case.

 There's no issue with output and audio detection. It just happens that as
 the output only supports stereo, and the audio is ac3 and the codec
 supports down mixing, ffmpeg is configured to a maximum number of channels
 of 2. This disable later detection of channel number change.

 OTher audio codecs behaves differently.
