Hello,
I am running an Asrock ION 330-HT with Ubuntu Lucid and the latest XBMC code compiled from git. I have an optical connection to my Pioneer reciever. I have XBMC set to do passthrough for AC3 and DTS. When i play a file with surround sound, I only get audio from the FL and FR speakers, everything is downmixed to those two.
I get menu sounds, i can play MP3s. I'm just not getting surround via passthrough. The reciever lights up as DTS or Dolby Digital as appropriate.
Any help would be appreciated.
My aplay -l
My aplay -L
I have this issue with and without the follwing asound.conf
Here is my xbmc.log http://pastebin.com/XpwMrv5U
