You'll have two separate problems.  No, three:

I'm assuming this is a "9.1" output.

You may not have direct hardware access to the output channels; the 9.1
demuxing may be in the audio hardware itself, or worse, partly there, and
partly in a Windows driver you likely won't be running.

Secondly, it's common for the interchannel separation to be miserable in
such circumstances; there's enough commonality in a matrix stereo output
that you don't need the 90dB or more of separation you'll want to keep
Cue from leaking into PGM.

And, damnit, I've lost the third one.  More After Coffee<tm>.  :-)
