Re: [xine-user] Xine, Alsa and 5.1 - how to get it to work?

[Karsten J. <ka...@je...>]

Hello again,

I just searched the archives and saw Manfreds reply. Sorry - I never saw 
that in the first place. But I did read it today of course.

I am attempting to get the sound on the analog plugs and not pass it 
through on the SPDIF.

I have it setup so that:
speaker-test -c6
plays correctly.
However when I use what Manfred requested:
speaker-test -Dplug:surround51 -c6
then it doesn't play correctly.
FL  plays FL
C plays RL
FR plays FR
RR plays LFE
RL plays C
LFE plays RR

and xine still says that the sound device is unavailable when 5.1 sound 
comes up.
Sigh......

Where do I go from here?
