That is strange. Pulsaudio using 5.1 surround is working for me on Ubuntu 9.04, 9.10, 10.04 using Audigy 2 ZS. In my case I've not had to install extra packages. (Also, this is on a Shuttle box with the Audigy card added into the PCI slot).As a side note... 10.04 has had the best hardware support for me so far! @brian

  • Did you try selecting the corresponding tracks without PCM?
  • Are you using PulseAudio?
  • Did you also configure your media player to use 5.1 surround sound?
  • Did you check the hardware itself? (Cards and cable).

If so, the issue may be how the speakers are plugged in. (I had to change where they were plugged in a couple of times).

I am working with Ubuntu 9.04 (64 bits) and listening the music from six speakers. Don't forget, check all the channels for PulseAudio and ALSA mixer. Hay que verificar el control de volumen para PulseAudio y ALSA mixer. Disfruto más las películas con el sonido en los seis parlantes.I have a sound card. It's a Creative Audigy SE (ca0106).Ahora estoy peleando con el TVTime. El volumen no sube de 0. Thanks to you. Tu español es mejor que mi inglés.
