I suspect that it may just be pulling the core from DTS-MA.
No, several AVS members like joerod and madpoet are reporting that DTS-HD MA is indicated on their receiver's front display.

I think Samsung is making a distinction in the language because TrueHD can either be decoded in the player as PCM or passed out as undecoded bitstream, and both are transmitted over HDMI interface. OTOH, DTS-HD MA cannot be decoded in the player, so the only thing left is digital output.
