Why does this file get transcoded and this one does not???

Here's my renderer's config file:
It has Support lines:
Why does UMS think I need to transcode the following file?
That mediainfo seems to indicate a Matroska format (f:mkv) with Advanced Video Codec (v:h264) and DTS audio (a:dts)
why is that not matching the second Supported line for f:mkv? If I go into the #Transcode# folder and select "No Encoding" it plays just fine so clearly the rendered does support it as advertised.
furthermore, On the other hand: is a Matroska container with Advanced Video Codec and FLAC audio. The FLAC audio clearly isn't supported by any Supported line in the renderer (and the device's manual doesn't say it is supported) and yet UMS trys to stream it as is when it clearly needs to be transcoded.
Why is UMS incorrectly detecting the transcoding need for these two files?
