Alternate Audio Tracks not Correctly Selected if TrueHD present

I am having issues with playing alternate audio tracks when the video file contains TrueHD tracks.  I know TrueHD will require transcoding but other tracks like commentary and alternate languages will generally Direct Play.  If I select an alternate track that will direct play, it will not play the correct track.

For example, if the video contains

 

Track 1 – TrueHD

Track 2 – Stereo

Track 3 – Commentary 1

Track 4 – Commentary 2.

 

If I select track 2, it will actually play Track 3.  Select track 3 and it plays track 4.  Select Track 4 and it plays Track 2.  The attached log file shows this example where the server is correctly selecting track 2 and is allowing Direct Play.  Other clients such as Web, Theater, and iPAD all correctly select the second stream but the Samsung client is off by one and selects the 3rd track.  Testing with a video file with 2 TrueHD tracks shows it is off by 2.  The Samsung client seems to be ignoring TrueHD tracks and counting based on allowed tracks which is not correct.

I am still stuck running version 1.0.39 so am not sure if this issue has been resolved in a later version.
