Refresh rate switching forces audio to be played in PCM #4067

Description

Describe the bug

  1. Enable refresh rate switching
  2. Play a movie with audio codec other then PCM
  3. The movie is played with PCM audio, it is not transcoded on the server and seems to be completely caused by androidtv (or exoplayer?)

I tried fixing this myself by disabling transcoding and investigating the source code but could not find the issue. I can try to fix the issue myself but would need some pointers or advice of where the issue could be.

There also seemed to be another reported issue like this but deleted? #3528
Problem is also mentioned on the forums: https://forum.jellyfin.org/t-android-tv-audio-only-pcm-when-refresh-rate-switching-is-on
