Comment(by paul at paulcatchpole.co.uk):

 In the mean time I've tried setting the database field to the
 "ALSA:softvol|surround51m" value and although my upmixed audio works as
 usual, trying a DVD with the internal player appears to use 'softvol'
 rather than the 5.1 PCM...

 That's what it 'sounds' like in any case, and I'm guessing that the
 'channels=2' in the setparameters line at the bottom of the following log
 confirms that?

 Interesting it doesn't report the audio device it's trying to open - that
 would be useful - is that debug line enabled by a different -v flag?
