I've attached "pulseaudio --system -v" log. For surround51, it says: . . . I: alsa-util.c: Failed to set hardware parameters on plug:surround51:0: Broken pipe I: (alsa-lib)pcm_hw.c: SNDRV_PCM_IOCTL_PREPARE failed (-32) I: (alsa-lib)pcm_hw.c: SNDRV_PCM_IOCTL_PREPARE failed (-32) I: (alsa-lib)pcm_hw.c: SNDRV_PCM_IOCTL_PREPARE failed (-32) I: (alsa-lib)pcm_hw.c: SNDRV_PCM_IOCTL_PREPARE failed (-32) I: (alsa-lib)pcm_hw.c: SNDRV_PCM_IOCTL_PREPARE failed (-32) I: alsa-util.c: snd_pcm_hw_params failed: Broken Pipe . . .

Is there something I can do or is it a bug in pulseaudio??
