Firstly, sorry for replying directly to you >_< I always forget to reply
to the list :\

Secondly, does your motherboard documentation actually say it supports
5.1? It probably does say so, but if it doesn't then you'll waste a lot
of time!

Thirdly, have you enabled 6 channel output in alsamixer? At least on my
snd-hda-intel card there's a mixer to switch between 2, 4 and 6 channel
output.

Hope some of this helps,
