Hi,
You can almost assume all players don't support AC3 anymore (due to patent issues). For the meantime, HD Player Pro team made a really nice workaround:

I've tested a lot of mkv apps so if you want another opinion and alternatives I recommend the following, most of the time they will all handle 720p (10bit) and 1080p (8bit) mkvs really well:
1. HD Player Pro:
+ Correctly render stylised softsubs (might be the only app).
- No forward/rewind gesture yet, which is a letdown to me.
2. yaPlayer:
+ Chapters support (might be the only app).
3. AV Player:
+ Supports AC3 natively.
Hope that helped.
