1. Have you enabled AC3 passthrough? It is in the FE settings, either in
General or TV playback if I remember correctly.

2. Have you set the language to Danish? There are two settings, one for the
GUI which is usually set the first time you start the FE, and one under
Appearance that selects language in EPG and subtitles.
You can also try to select the teletext subtitle language instead of the
DVB subtitle language.
