I just tested the sample I uploaded on my computer at work which has Realtek HD onboard audio, same problem.

This has to be a bug with the codecs or a configuration issue.

When I install the Skark007 codecs the only settings I change after the install are:

MKV tab: LAV Splitter
h264 tab: LAV Video - in the video configuration of LAV I set the hardware decoder to NVIDIA CUVID and the RGB output levels to TV (16-235).
Audio tab: Setup LAV audio

or I have also used

MKV tab: Haali Splitter
Video tab: Use FFDShow codec
Audio tab: Disable LAV Audio

Is there anything else I should be changing?

X-FI sound cards are for a gaming PC just fine, but no use for a Windows 7 Media Center HTPC.
I use an onboard Realtek ALC 889 or ATI HDMI sound with HD 5570 (HDMI 1.3) and HD6320 (HDMI 1.4a). Unfortunately, I can only output in stereo, but even with no TrueHD and DTS-HD codec problems playing.
My settings with FFDshow DXVA or FFDshow video decoder, can be found here.

I went with an Auzen X-Fi HomeTheater HD sound card for my media center pc as I do occasionally game on this pc as well.
The X-Fi cards combined with the logitech z-5500's sound pretty good.
I will eventually upgrade to a good receiver and speaker system it's just not affordable for me at this time.

I'll give your codec settings a try soon as I get a chance.

I found the problem!

It was in the audio tracks....

I use MakeMKV and Pavtube ByteCopy to rip movies to mkv.
At the time I ripped most of my collection I remember there was some serious bug with MakeMKV and PCM so I purchased ByteCopy just for ripping movies with PCM audio tracks.
Well it seems there must have been a bug in ByteCopy as well.
Today I re-ripped Gone in Sixty Seconds, once with each program and both played perfectly...

Looks like I'm off to re-rip several movies!
