Mark, I don't know if i understand, but i'll try. I think you want to output TV Tunner plugged into Line In to both sound cards. You using some program to capture the sound of Line In(TV Tunner) and reproduze that(output) ? You can output the sound of Line In using the previous PCM created ? You have an set up of 4.1, 5.1, 7.1 speakers in your HDA or USB Sound Card ? The previous PCM created is for Stereo Speakers. 4.1, 5.1, 7.1 Speakers don't work. For 4.1 and so on, must be created another PCM to work. I don't a expert, but i think the Line In is Stereo capturing. If i'm right, you will copy Stereo channel(upmix) to 4.1, 5.1, 7.1 set up. That's all.
