In order to get it detected, I have to do the following: 1) Open alsamixer 2) Change the "Channel Mode" setting from "2ch" to "6ch" (there is also a "4ch" setting) 3) `pulseaudio -k` I have to do this on every boot, as the "6ch" setting is not remembered. [0] My soundcard and sound system are 5.1, but I actually only have front left, center, right and the subwoofer. This shouldn't affect how Ubuntu acts at all (because it can't know what speakers I have plugged in to my subwoofer), but will mean that I can't report on whether or not rear channels are working as expected.
