Sharp Aquos Profile support

Hey guys, first time poster, been lurking for a while. Recently, I just got a Sharp Aquos lc80le844.

Now, looking at the manual, it seems sharp does not accept ac3. This is the ONLY profile that works for everything for me. However, for some reason, I lose the first 5 seconds of audio on every file I play.

  Code:
 <Profile id="18" name="Sharp Aquos" extendsProfileId="1">
      <Detection>
         <HttpHeaders>
            <User-Agent>.*SHARP-AQUOS.*</User-Agent>
         </HttpHeaders>
      </Detection>
      <MediaFormatProfiles>
         <MediaFormatProfile mime-type="video/avi" name="">AVI</MediaFormatProfile>
         <MediaFormatProfile mime-type="video/mp4">MPEG4_P2_3GPP_SP_L0B_AAC</MediaFormatProfile>
         <MediaFormatProfile mime-type="video/mp4">MPEG4_P2_3GPP_SP_L0B_AMR</MediaFormatProfile>
         <MediaFormatProfile mime-type="video/mp4">AVC_3GPP_BL_QCIF15_AAC</MediaFormatProfile>
      </MediaFormatProfiles>
      <Transcoding>
          <Video targetContainer="mpegts" targetVCodec="mpeg2video" targetACodec="mp3">
            <Matches container="avi" />
            <Matches container="mp4" />
            <Matches container="matroska" />
            <Matches container="flv" />
            <Matches container="wtv" />
          </Video>
         <Audio targetContainer="lpcm">
            <Matches container="asf" />
            <Matches container="flac" />
            <Matches container="ogg" />
         </Audio>
      </Transcoding>
      <OnlineTranscoding>         
         <Video targetContainer="mpeg" targetVCodec="mpeg2video" targetACodec="ac3" aBitrate="384">
            <Matches container="mp4"/>
         </Video>   
      </OnlineTranscoding>
      <AutomaticImageRotation>true</AutomaticImageRotation>
      <LimitImageResolution>false</LimitImageResolution>
      </Profile>


Now, all the standard profiles I've seen for sharp aquos use ac3. When I try it, a lot of my mkvs and mp4s will not play. Looking at the manual, it seems sharp does not support ac3. When I try to replace mp3 with aac, the video plays but then I get no sound. When I replace mp3 with ac3, the video doesn't play at all. Am I doing something wrong? I'm not sure what I need to do to change it to aac and have it work.

Looking at the files I'm playing,

Thanks. Any input would be great.
