Public bug reported: I thought I configured the file so I'd get 5.1 sound, but I see only two 'bars' listed in the alsamixer, so assume it is only making it to two speakers - they both seem to be going to the base, so I can't hear voice hardly and music not at all. Please help! Thanks. Ubuntu 12.04 and the problem has been continuous since upgrading from 11.04 via 11.10 - it has changed [variations on bad] as I try different things...but as it never gets good, I'm lost. I just pulled out one physically removable sound card to see if that would simplify the solution...I don't see any change yet. One other thing. In the system tools there is something called change the default sound card. When I click on it NOTHING EVER HAPPENS. I think these are connected, but don't know how to re-install that specifically. Have several times re-installed all sound related files, but it seems to configure itself the same each time.
