Indeed it does have internal 5.1 speakers, Raymond. What I didn't know before now was what yourself and Shanekpiper seem to have indicated; namely that the 3 external jacks are configurable by pulse audio to allow external 5.1 speakers to be connected. I had just assumed that the "mic" and "line in" jacks were dealt with as mic and line in. As regards the bug, I'm now running Linux Mint 13 32bit (with pulseaudio version 1.1) so all I'm able to add to this bug report is that there is no problem with this setup.
