I could not believe it first, but there are now SPDIF devices out there that accept 384 khz / 32 bit input. See for example the following device: http://www.ca.marantz.com/ca/Products/Pages/ProductDetails.aspx?CatId=HiFiComponents&SubCatId=0&ProductId=HDAMP1
A user on LibreELEC forum verified with ALSA's speaker-test that it works correctly. In order to support this usecase a minimal change to kodi (only Settings and Language) needs to happen.
Note: ALSA sink currently does not support 352 khz, but pulseaudio does. 384 khz both support.
