Hi,
I noticed some changes that made 5.0 not working well when
detecting screen speakers through hdmi, but this I didn't see anytime.
My problem flew away with 5.1.15(the one I currently use), and no
other spread. I never needed the ACS override patch in my setup,
what happen if you try without it, does your groups comes wrong in
any ways?
Best regards.
José.
