I have a Creative SB live card and a 5.1 speaker setup
(verified using speaker test using the
following command:  speaker-test -Dplug:surround51 -c6). I
have the latest ALSA drivers (and OSS
emulation installed) installed. An attempt to play 5.1
content through RealPlayer fails in the sense
that i get only 2 channels of sound output. Playing the same
content through mplayer succeeds.

The expected behavior is Cayenne core should be able to
support 5.1 content.

I am not sure if the content is rights-free; once i confirm
that the content is rights free, i'll
attach the clip to this bug.
