ATSC 3.0 Audio isn't work on Shield

[shaflikb 1]

I know there has been a lot of related discussion on this topic, but i was unable to find a solution when i was searching the forum (so sorry if this is a duplicate post). I'm running the regular Android app (not the one for TV, as discussed in other threads) and trying to play an ATSC 3.0 station using my HDHR. I get a great video stream, but no audio. I have my Sheild connected to a Yamaha TSR-7850 audio receiver. When i stream Emby it appears to be 'direct playing' everything. My audio receiver says the audio input is PCM 2.0 (see screenshot) which doesn't look right. My audio receiver appears to be able to play many audio formats, however, i admit i couldn't find anything that specifically said it could or couldn't play AC4. Any suggestions on how to get audio working?? Thanks.

Sorry for the delay. Here are the logs. I haven't tried this in awhile so the failure is slightly different now. When i try and tune to an ATSC 3 channel now i get no video and no audio. I also attached a screen shot of the HDHomeRun tuner status page in case that helps. Let me know what you find. Thanks.
