Public bug reported: When I had Karmic Koala installed on my laptop, surround sound worked perfectly. Then, I updated to Lucid Lynx. At first I experienced no trouble concerning surround sound, but after few updates I lost surround - now I have only stereo output, and no signal at surround outlets. I wonder what might have gone wrong, I included some debugging info collected by apport, if there is any other way I can help diagnosing this bug, please inform me.
A strange symptom I observed: In gnome-volume-control, in output tab, I have two sliders: one for panning right-left, and second for front-rear. The first one works correctly, while the second one not: as I am sliding it, master volume goes down, quickly but gradually (to zero), and the slider I moved gets back to center (starting position). I don't know if it is meaningful information, but I hope it will help. I have no idea what to think about it, I will help you diagnosing as much as I can, and I hope this problem will be fixed soon.
