And again about sound. I compiled ALSA and all modules into kernel (2.6.5) and got the sound to work, but... only from 2 channels (xmms plays only from 2 frontal speakers). aplay doesn't seem to work at all, all channels are unmuted, including Master, PCM, Surround and LFE. I don't know, what is the problem :-(
What software to use to get full 6-channel audio? I tried mplayer -channels 6 -ao oss/alsa/alsa9/alsa9:spdif but there is no sound at all.
Xine also gives me no sound....
