Hello. System specs at the bottom of the post. Title says it all. I want stereo sources to upmix to surround-sound.
In Ubuntu Gnome, if I listened to music through Kodi, stereo sources would upmix to 5.1, and low frequencies would output via the subwoofer.
Now using Kubuntu, I remembered to edit pulse-daemon.conf, and I enabled lfe-remixing, and set my crossover to 120 Hz, rebooted, but there's no audio ever coming out the sub.
In Plasma's sound settings, I have my output set to 5.1 with stereo input duplex, and I also tried just 5.1. No change. Also - There's no "test output" buttons like there is in Gnome. You know, so you can hear the lady's voice say "Front. Center." "Front. Right." "Rear. Right."
etc. How do I do that in Plasma?
In Kodi's System Settings > Audio, I have my output set to 5.1.
Still no subwoofer.
I played a bit of Saint's Row 4, and there was no subwoofer there either, but there used to be when I gamed with Ubuntu Gnome.
It just dawned on me that I might need to install ALSA Mixer GUI and turn up the channel, but I'm at work, and I can't confirm. I don't know if ALSA Mixer GUI even works in Plasma. I will try it. Anybody have any other suggestions just in case?
Thanks in advance.
