 I have set up the audio to passthrough ac3 encoded sound (5.1 channels) to
 my external digital audio receiver. Ironically, in the
 Setup->General->Audio screen in the Frontend, if I choose '5.1' for 'Max
 Audio Channels' the passthrough does not work, and only silence is heard
 on my speakers. If I set it instead to 'Stereo', I get proper passthrough
 and full 5.1 channel sound on the speakers.
