Hi all:

I have an Audiotrak Prodigy 5.1 LT Card ( known in the ALSA world as
ICE1724 (Envy 24 HT/PT).

The card has Front, Rear, BS(HP), CW and Digital out connectors for audio.

I want to get 5.1 audio to work on Gentoo Linux 2006.

Here's what I've configured on kernel 2.6.15:
- Alsa enabled (nothing else in the alsa sub menu enabled)
- Alsa drivers emerged (1.0.10)
- Alsa 1.0.11 drivers installed separately after the 1.0.10 was unmerged.

I get audio on only the Front and BS connectors. I don't get audio on
the Rear or the CW connectors. I don't have any audio accessory
capable of connecting to the digital audio connector.

I am about to read the alsa-project site wiki. However, I'm new to 5.1
audio and have some newbit-class questions:

1. Does anyone have experience with using 5.1 or 7.1 sound cards under Linux ?
2. Are there are special settings that you need to do ?
3. Are there any special audio connectors ?
4. I have stereo and mono MP3 files that I wish to play via GStreamer
and xmms. What will I have to do to get such audio out of all four
audio connectors ?

Thanks in advance for all responses.
