I can only think of the "fake" x-fi (those which do not include the real x-fi chip, only the brand) to be troublesome.

Originally posted by Dragonlord View PostNope, everything is alright there. I can test the different X-fi devices KDE4 shows me and the front and surround jacks on the back give sound but the side one jack stays silent. 5.1 definitely works properly if ALSA driver doesn't mess up since the Realtek (onboard) I used so far gives 5.1 without a problem showing only one device in KDE4. Looks like x-fi driver problem.

But we are getting a little too much offtopic now
