Re: [Desktop-packages] [Bug 1371963] Re: cannot set default audio device with alsa (pulse audio disabled, can only get audio to work in VLC)
I got it working. The issue was with the spdif optical output on my secondary audio card. Pulse audio initially would not output 5.1 so I disabled it and tried ALSA. I was then able to output 5.1 in VLC but I was not able to get any audio to output elsewhere. After trying multiple ALSA mixers to no avail, I reinstalled pulse audio and viola, I retained 5.1 output in VLC through ALSA and now have stereo output via pulse audio for all other applications. Thank you for your help!
