Linux Mint, KDE, Ubuntu and spdif surround sound

[RSB]

I did not get an answer to my last question so I thought I would go with a more difficult one this time. Anyone know how to force or get an option to show for digital surround sound through spdif in mint. I only have digital two channel so far and that means 4 speakers waisted.

Sorry – I always find Linux sound a bit hit and miss, and prone to breakage. I’d suggest that before you play that you take a full backup of your current position. Then depending whether you are using pulse (ugh) or alsa, that you look for the tools to that in your distro. e.g. alsa-tools
