If these are real 5.1 flacs, just telling SOX to remix them to 2
channels is not going to make them play properly.
How were these files created? - were they ripped from DVD/dvd-a/sacd
somehow?

You want to see the signal path BEFORE it gets onto a CD/vinyl...it
ain't what you'd
ITRAX and few other websites sell now these 5.1 flac files.
I do not know which matrix SoX uses for downmix, but the result was
quite acceptable.
I also use foobar2k sometimes to downmix in off-line

Just downmix with Sox, pass '-c2'

If you really do want to play 5.1 FLACs, then the Dune players are the
only devices I've seen that provide native MC FLAC support. You would
need a processor/amp with HDMI input of course.

I finally have a surround-sound setup and would like to try playing some
FLACs through my SB3. Unfortunately the two files I have tried, have
done nothing. They never play. I couldn't find a basic primer about
setting up the SB3 to do this. I thought it was automatic. Are there
certain types of

They can not really *be* 5.1 FLAC i think flac supports 8 channels or
what.
One single spdif can only carry 2ch PCM stereo or a stream that is DTS
or DD or mpeg
Read the very long tread suggested by phil
But if you are trying to play 5*24/48 lossles files you can give up
now, the end result is
