> Center and LFE are reproduced in every speaker, while mplayer reproduces
the center with the two front speakers
Sorry, I don't follow?
Could you please do the pulseaudio -vvvv thing I mentioned? It will
explain in detail how we do remixing.
Also note that MPlayer doesn't really expot channel mapping information to
its backends. The channel mapping the PA backend synthesizes for the audio
streammight not match up what the sound file you have exports. This is a
limitation of MPlayer.
Use GStreamer. The GStreamer driver knows about channel mappings.
