The jellyfin problem is probably it downmixing surround 7.1 really shittily. You can run tdarr to downmix surround into stereo before you watch. Kind of a pain but it's the only workaroumd I've got for the shit audio
I'm not getting sync issues at all, the jellyfin client on appleTV simply doesn't select the audio track I select when I choose something different than default. It works perfectly fine on all other devices, just not appleTV. I only have stereo devices.
What did I write in my OP to suggest audio sync issues? You're not the first to think that's my issue, so I must have worded something poorly...
I think there's miscommunication. I don't mean you're audio is out of sync, I mean that the file being played has 7.1 as the audio track, then when jellyfin downmixes it to stereo for you speakers it sounds like absolute ass.
The "doesn't select the right audio track" is another issue that I personally don't have, but the downmixing one is something that seems to be baked into Jellyfin for TV.
Aah, the audio quality if fine for me, I don't have exceptionally bad audio quality.
