Theater Sound
How can i hook up my Home Theater surround sound to my computer?

Right now i have a 5.1 surround sound for my home theater. Also i have my computer’s sound card hooked up to my reciever through a digital optical cable. I also went in to my sound properties on my computer and it lists three things:

Speakers: not plugged in
Digital output: working
HDMI output: working

I believe you have to set your speakers to 5.1 and the rest should work. You may have to turn the volume down on your desktop speakers to prevent interference. How do you know your digital outputs are working? Just because the computer thinks they are working doesn’t necessarily make it so.

I have an SB Audigy and have been unable to get the digital output to work even though the computer says things are great.

TitoBob: If he only wanted stereo sound he would not have asked the question!
