Ive searched alot of wikis and set-ups to get my 5.1 working on my onboard AC97 butt it just wont work. Even duplicating the front doesnt work. Ive been stuck on 2.1 for ages and its killing me slowly. I was wondering if anyone got it working? I have an Asus P5ND2-SLi and Kmix detects it as NVidia MCP04.
If i cant get at least 4.1 id also be interested in getting an Audigy card as most of them seem to work out of the box. I just tried with a Sound Blaster Live and i got 4.1 straight-up so yeah..too bad i cant keep it..
Any advice or recommendations would be greatly appreciated...
EDIT::::::
Just put this in my .asoundrc
pcm.duplicate {
type plug
slave.pcm "surround51"
slave.channels 6
route_policy duplicate
After that i fiddled around with the connections to the motherboard and ticked duplicate sound in Kmix and finally got me 5.1. Sounds soo good compared to 2.1.
P.S I have an Asus P5ND2-SLi with a pair of Logitech X-530's.
