My memory was that the surround channel was added to one channel normally 
and to the other channel inverted, but the Wikipedia article on Dolby 
surround says it's phase-shifted 90 degrees in one and -90 in the other 
(and, apparently, multiplied by sqrt(2)/2).  That's why I didn't mention 
specifics in my first post.

But if you wrote a Csound orchestra to decode DTS noise into stereo, you 
certainly should be able to do it for plain old Dolby surround!  Start 
messing with phase and adding channels together, and you ought to get 
something useful out of it.
