Default Compatibility issues with HDMI cables, Home Theater Receiver & Blu Ray

I posted a question on the "newbie thread", asking if anyone has heard of issues with certain HDMI cables NOT decoding the new HD surround sound formats of Blu Ray players when hooked up to a compatible receiver. My question is, has anyone ran into problems with HDMI cables of another brand, other than Monster Cable, not decoding the HD surround formats? Of course this is assuming you have a receiver that decodes the new formats? Below is the quote from a guy that posted this concern (Crutchfield.com) after buying the Sony BDP-S500 Blu Ray player;
"People who purchase this BD Player and have an Onkyo capable of decoding Dolby-True HD and DTS HD will need to get an HDMI 3.1 cable. when I first hooked this up, I almost returned it because it wasn't decoding these formats. After a few calls to Crutchfield and Sony, Sony said to use the HDMI 3.1 cable. I didnt even know there was such a thing as 3.1 cables, I thought they were all just "HDMI" cables. Boy was I amazed after I picked one up (for the same price as the older kind). The sound is amazing and you can hear the difference!"
