Hello all, here is my thang....
I have an Asus P4PE motherboard with onboard 5.1 surround sound capabilities and SoundMax audio utility. I have installed the Spdif module (digital audio connector) and are running a digital optical cable to my Samsung 5.1 surround receiver.
The problem is here.........when I use the SoundMax software utility to test the presence of all 5 speakers, only the front 3 are functioning. Basically as the sound moves through each speaker in a circle but no sound comes from the rears????
I have windows set to 5.1 speakers, AC3 checked on and PCM checked on in the audio properties, and the latest SoundMax for my MB. By the way the receiver is working properly because I can phase all 5 speakers within the receivers' own utility. ANY IDEAS?????
