Hello ,
My system is composed by:
A Zotac ION 330, 4gb Ram conected throught HDMI to a onkyo txr 606 receiver wich is capable of decoding DTS, DD (and all HD formats).

I have installed ubuntu and xbmc following this guide, and updated ALSA to 1.0.20.
My audio Hardware configuration in xbmc is:

Default audio device: plug:hdmi
Passthrough device: hdmi
Downmix Multichannel Audio to Stereo: False

With this configuration xbmc only sends two channels of the 5.1 to my receiver, the left and right channel and my receiver take this output as a Stereo signal.

I've also try "Default audio device: hdmi" and is the same.

It's seems that xbmc decode the DD/DTS and only output two channels.

I've also try connecting the Pc to the receiver with a spdif cable and setting iec958 /iec958 config and happens the same: no DTS/DD throught to my receiver.

I have been during three days (and part of the nights) reading forums and It seems that my config might work but it doesn't.

So anybody can help me please?

Thank you all in advance
