Issues playing file when Bluetooth audio connected

[GuyBee 2]

I have a movie with AC3 5.1 that's plays fine on a tablet. But if i I connect (very cheap) Bluetooth headphones and try to play that same movie it fails and says there was an issue etc.

Is this a bug? Is it just that the headphones can't handle the audio codec, and better quality ones would?

Would love some insight.

Thanks!

I can fix this by using an external player (vlc or just player do the job).. but I'd love to know why thats needed and if I can make it not be necessary.
