No sound via HDMI, Intel G4600 + ASUS H170

Spent 2 hours with the PC, and did not get sound from the motherboard via HDMI.
Strange that in Kodi sound works! When I choose output, it shows HDMI 2 (Intel HDA...) Panasonic TV exactly, but in the game shell all outputs are called HDMI x (Intel HDA...) and no one has the Panasonic name. No matter I had returned from Kodi back to ES or being rebooted.
The sound also works good from stereo audio output.
Alsa Mixer (Ctrl+Alt+F4) shows Realtek only one device to choose from.
How is it that Kodi sees the TV correctly, but the shell doesn't?
There are no problems with the image , it switches in the settings as I need, whether is monitor or TV.
I tried two different cables, no sound.

I have an Intel Pentium G4500 on a Fujitsu Mainboard D3474-B (Thin-ITX) and when i open Kodi and go into System Settings, Audio, Audio Output Device i choose "HDA Intel PCH, SAM SyncMaster (that is my TV connected via HDMI) on HDMI #0".
Then i have sound within kodi.
I exit kodi and go to Batocera ES Menu, System Settings, Audio Output and choose: "HDMI0 PCH [HDA INTEL PCH]" and then i have sound in games also.

This method always worked for me (and i have tested plenty of different PC Hardware).

What exactly do you see in Kodi Audio Output Devices? Could you make a screenshot of the devices listed there?
And then also a screenshot of the list of audio devices in Batocera ES?
