I picked up the 5.1 used (for $15!!) off craigslist in January, for my GigE dual 450. The new drivers have been working fine, though when I use fast user switching, I get a crazy noise sometimes from the speakers. system logs show a ton of notes about something to do with unexpected volume change (one error for each of the 6 channels). But as soon as I change the volume, it figures itself out, and the loud buzzing goes away, so I haven't worried about it up till now. I am using the analogue ports, not the digital, and my speakers are all small computer speakers, including a cute little sub-woofer that fits under my desk nicely. The only setting I have had to change more than once was the audio input. I want it to be through my web cam, and it keeps trying to pick up from the M-Audio's input port. But that is a setting in Skype, not System Prefs, or the M-Audio panel. Since I watch/listen to all my media on this Mac (there's no TV in my house), it's been really fun to have.
