Display output only 8 bit for HDR content

Sorry if my question has already been answered somewhere else, but I haven't found out yet whether my issue is expected behaviour or whether it is an issue at all.

My setup:
Windows 10 Enterprise 1709 64bit
Zoom Player 14
madVR v0.92.10
Nvidia GTX 980 385.69
Marantz SR6011 AV receiver (HDR ready)
Sony XD9305 TV (HDR ready) -> manually set into HDR mode (BT.2020)

When I play HDR content on the PC through the receiver to the TV (for example the Exodus UHD_HDR_24p.mp4 demo trailer), HDR seems to be fine. Colours seem fine to me at least.

However when checking the info screen with CTRL+J, it shows the source as being 10 bit, but output is "D3D11 exclusive 8 bit".

Shouldn't I be seeing "D3D11 exclusive 10 bit" as my whole chain in theory is 10 bit ready? Or is this because of the infamous Nvidia driver or Falls Creator issue?
Any way to get 10 bit output?
