Hello everyone,
Basically I've the same issue described here:
https://askubuntu.com/questions/1180389/speaker-test-returns-all-6-channels-to-front-speakers
What does this do for you:
speaker-test -c6 -twav
It should play some voice from each speaker in turn.
I solved by buying a Toslink (S/PDIF) optical cable, and using thus the
"Surround 5.1 Digital output" and unplugging the three jacks analog
cable. Now speaker-test works nicely:
~$ speaker-test -c6 -l1 -twav
speaker-test 1.2.8
Playback device is default
Stream parameters are 48000Hz, S16_LE, 6 channels
WAV file(s)
Rate set to 48000Hz (requested 48000Hz)
Buffer size range from 32 to 349525
Period size range from 10 to 116509
Using max buffer size 349524
Periods = 4
was set period_size = 87381
was set buffer_size = 349524
0 - Front Left
4 - Center
1 - Front Right
3 - Rear Right
2 - Rear Left
5 - LFE
Time per period = 8,720806
maybe it was a hardware issue with the DAC of my Logitech Z906, it seems
that with the three jacks analog cable it downmix to stereo, thanks anyway.
Cheers,
