Hi all,
I've got a fresh install of FreeBSD12 with KDE Desktop on an Nvidia 550ti. I've installed the /usr/ports/x11/nvidia-driver and I'm quite happy with what I see so far. I have hdmi sound out from my pc to my surround sound receiver and then out to a 5.1 setup. This is a fully functional system that was running Ubuntu up until yesterday.
I've managed to get sound working to my front two speakers and the sub woofer but cant get sound to my middle speaker or my back two speakers.
pcm4 (below) is the only one that works when I send a test sound to it so I've set that up in /boot/loader.conf
Any clues on where I should look now to get 5.1 fully functional?
tks in advance
