            Bug ID: 445523
           Summary: lfe sound not working for 5.1 or 7.1 multichannel
                    audio
           Product: plasma-pa
           Version: 5.23.3
          Platform: Debian unstable
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: now...@gmail.com
          Reporter: wothum...@gmx.de
                CC: plasma-b...@kde.org
  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY
Line 373 of  .../src/kcm/package/contents/ui/main.qml reads:
373: onClicked: tester.testChannel(modelData === "lfe" ? "rear-center" :
modelData)

This has no effect. Although "audio-channel-rear-center.oga" exists within
freedesktop,
its sound is redirected to a nonexistent 5.1 (or 7.1) surround channel (and not
to lfe) by libcanberra
(due to use of  CA_PROP_CANBERRA_FORCE_CHANNEL I guess). 

In order to fix this I suggest to replace line 373 by
onClicked: tester.testChannel(modelData === "lfe" ? "lfe" : modelData) or even
onClicked: tester.testChannel(modelData)

and link audio-channel-lfe.oga to file audio-channel-rear-center.oga:
../sounds/freedesktop/stereo/audio-channel-lfe.oga ->
../sounds/freedesktop/stereo/audio-channel-rear-center.oga

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
see above 

OBSERVED RESULT
subwoofer button not working for 5.1 or 7.1 multichannel audio. 

EXPECTED RESULT
plays rear-center audio sound.
