pointydriphello, I have a alsa/soundcard problem: in sound preferences>hardware it shows my card "SB Live! EMUk101" but it says "1 output" when the card has 3 speaker outputs (among others) and is meant for 5.1 surround...the problem is I have an old set of Dell 5.1's to go with the card, but they it is somewhat useless if I cannot match the channels22:53
pointydripI have done a fair deal of trial and error with the "profile setting" in sound preferences and notice that I am able to get 2 of the output channels to work on seeminglingly random settings22:59
pointydripalso downloaded the sound card manual and the connections are not the problem23:00
