All,
First I'm going to say I'm a Fedora user -- sorry to break ranks
I've been trying to get my 4.1 channel speakers to work in F10 for a few days now, with limited (ok, no) success. I'm hoping you all can help. If there's anything you can suggest I'd appreciate it. My alsamixer (no matter what I do) seems shows only two channels.
Here's the output from aplay -l
