Hi.
I have a problem with XBMC. I have a fresh install of ubuntu 9.04 . I have a ati hd4350 card with HDMI.
My idea was to have the video and the sound trough the HDMI port.
The hdmi sound didn't work out of the box, so I've installed the catalyst drivers and now works.
The problem is that when I execute the following command in mplayer, I get 5.1 sound, but when I run xbmc I only have 2 channel sound.

Bellow are my xbmc settings.
If I enable the ac3passthrough, I have an "error initializing audio device" while trying to play the same movie that was played with mplayer. If I leave it Off, I only get the sound for the front speakers.
It doesn't matter If I leave enabled or disabled dtspassthrough. Always 2 channel output.
Also, If I choose to force the hwdts codec on mplayer, the video plays without sound. So I suppose that my card supports ac3 but doesn't support dts. The question Is why xbmc is not allowing me to use ac3passthrough
Any suggestion is really apreciated!
