I've just been playing around on alpha 6 live cd, unfortunately, however, I can't even test this since I havn't been able to configure pulseaudio for surround sound without restarting (which would then remove all settings of course) Another bug (#260675) makes installing it impractical at the moment. However, some more testing on hardy has revealed that it's probably more to do with pulseaudio, or further down the chain - I'm not sure why I didn't notice that before. pavucontrol also controls the wrong channels, while the volume control from volume- control-applet controls the right ones... I guess this means it really needs to be tested further and possibly a bug filed against the appropriate package.
On a side note, it should probably be easier to setup / enable surround sound in pulseaudio than having to edit config files... :( My current workaround is to just plug the rear speakers plug into the center / LFE socket and vice versa, which is fine for me as long as I don't boot into vista too often (which does recognise all the channels correctly) -- totem sends surround sound to wrong channels https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/216702 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
