You need to change the pulseaudio configuration to use more than 2 speakers. You can install pavucontrol to monitor the output of each channel.

I just tested with visualizations disabled and I'm still seeing this bug. Are you sure it's fixed? Info: I'm on Ubuntu 9.04. I get successful surround from the command line with "mplayer -ao alsa -channels 6 testsurround.ogg". VLC can't figure out how to access the device "surround51", so reverts to stereo.

[Bug 40732] Re: totem-gstreamer does not support 5.1 surround sound
I've finally tested this on my old 4.1 sound card and I've come up against the same problems. First off I can confirm that I never hear anything out of the rear speakers using totem-gstreamer. Secondly I can't get gst-launch-0.10 to do the right thing with a multichannel wav (compared to the output produced by aplay). I shall spin this second issue off into a bug of its own so lets focus on the first issue here. Description of the problem: Totem-gstreamer doesn't output sound through the rear speakers despite the audio output being set to 4-channel/4.1-channel/5.0-channel/5.1-channel . Steps to reproduce: (assuming you have a working surround soundcard with 4 or more speakers correctly attached) 1. Disconnect your front speakers. 2. Run speaker-test -Dsurround41 -c 4 -twav Note that "Rear Right" "Rear Left" are announced through the rear right and rear left speakers respectively. 3. Download and extract ftp://ling.lll.hawaii.edu/pub/greg/Surround-SDL-testfiles.tgz 4. Run aplay -Dsurround41 Surround-SDL-testfiles/chan-id.wav Note how "Rear Left" "Rear Right" are announced through the rear left and rear right speakers respectively. 5. Start totem . 6. Go to Edit -> Preferences. Select the Audio tab and change the Audio output type to 4.1-channel. Click close. 7. Go to Movie -> Open and select Surround-SDL-testfiles/chan-id.wav . Click add. Expected results: Audio file to start play. "Rear Left" "Rear Right" are announced through the rear left and rear right speakers respectively. Actual results. Audio file to starts playing. No sound is heard at all. How reproducible is the problem? The problem is reproducible every time. Additional information: Soundcard is a 4.1 Creative Labs SB Live! EMU10k1 (rev 07) gst-launch-0.10 filesrc location=Surround-SDL-testfiles/chan-id.wav ! wavparse ! audioconvert ! audio/x-raw-int, channels=6 ! alsasink device=surround41 produces sound but not the correct sound compared to aplay. It announces "Centre" from the rear left speaker and "Rear Left/Rear Right" simultaneously from the right hand speaker.

[Bug 40732] Re: totem-gstreamer does not support 5.1 surround sound
Perhaps this can help. To get 5.1 playback for everything, I created an
.asoundrc in my home dir with:
pcm.!default {
type plug
slave.pcm "surround51"
slave.channels 6
route_policy duplicate
}
After that, everything will be in 5.1 , however GStreamer gave heavy
ticking in the sound. Totem-xine, xine play fine now. (ticking sound was
reported as a bug http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=365429 )
