No, I think the rear channels are not muted, I can play "aplay -D rear test.wav" through the rear speaker without problems (only the known "no rear volume by master-control") > Plus try to insert the module with options: > (look in the readme in the driver with module options, because there is an > option for 4 channels active too, if i remember right ...) AFAIK the 4-channels mixer option route front-channels to rear-channels by switch and has nothing to do with surround. If I run "ac3dec -6 test.ac3" I should hear sound from front, rear, sub and center, isn't it? What else can I check? Has it anyone work with this card? Please help if you can.
