I have already tried that one, and it does not work (sorry, I don't remember 
the exact error message, I will check it again tomorrow).
It also does not work on a SB Live 5.1 (I have managed to get at least 4.0 out 
of this card with the OpenAL CVS version, though 5.x also fails, just like 
with the Audigy).
Btw. is there no one who could fix the surround output on Linux? For example, 
5.1 works fabulous with xine and other Linux media players, why is it so 
difficult to get it working in OpenAL?
