It's not normal. I *know* that MP3 is stereo. I also know that 5.1 channel AC3 is not. But thanks for the information :). AC3 playback worked perfectly using OSS. Now however, I get nothing but stereo sound. And when I switch the font and rear channels in the player, I hear only the rear channels from the AC3, duplicated over front and rear speakers. > > > > * Is there a way to connect the front and rear volumes to one single > > volume control?

Thanx. But I would prefer a way that I can configure alsa so that all mixers will see one master slider for font+rear volume. > > > > * I can't find any information about all the dozens of volume controls. > > Does anyone know why you need so many?
