Title: Upconvert 'system-ready' startup sound to 5.1 surround Status in “ubuntu-sounds” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: The long-time 'system-ready' startup sound in Ubuntu is a nice stereo recording. Modern sound formats, such as AC3, support 5.1 and even 7.1 surround sound. As Ubuntu finds itself the basis for more and more media/TV PCs, it would be *super* slick for Ubuntu to sport the OS industry's first (?) 5.1/7.1 channel startup sound. I think it would be very forward-looking and have a unique, high-fidelity appeal to our platform.
