If I want to keep the original audio of the movie, I select Core and then x.x Copy Stream when selecting audio for the encoding settings. With the exception of TrueHD tracks, when using those, I have to select Demux. I essentially never use Wave unless its forced to because the audio is a PCM track. So essentially, use Core for everything except TrueHD tracks, and then you can select what you want in the encoding settings. I.e. Original, AC3, AAC, etc.
