I have to set it to Stereo 5 chan for my sub to work. I have large fronts and the sub set to LFE only. Yea I'm talking about the Xbox360, I would like to keep that device in 5.1 for my games since they sound better in surround. I wanted to play music straight from my PC to the 990 in 5 CHan Stereo while listening to a 5.1 source at the same time. Gonk says not possible so I'll have to deal with it
At least that's been my experience with it.
Are we talking xbox 360 here?
