Ok, so I installed Vista (read: Foolishly) earlier to sort out some hard drive issues and to give DX10 a go.
Anyway. I've got 5.1 set up and working (I can send sounds through all speakers), but my music only uses the front speakers and no sound at all comes from the rear ones. It did when I had XP.
I've used WMP and Foobar2000 to try it, so I don't think it's just a WMP (My preferred player) issue.
Any ideas? I've gone through all settings to make sure 5.1 is selected, the rear speakers aren't muted, it's just as though my music applications don't use them.
It's nothing major, but I like them being used. If there's a program that will use them, then I am happy to switch media players.
Cheers in advance
