Yes, they do work together fine

Full audio passthrough for HD 7.1 is still working great with the wrapper and Kodi 17 front end (even though it does not currently work with Kodi 17 alone).
I found Kodi updates to cause some issues initially (freezing and reboot) and after turning them all off, had had no further troubles with the latest Android 7 (and firmware 2.0.1) and Kodi 17. I only play back local video and audio files from internal HDD, USB and multiple NAS drives (no streaming).
