I'd need help to configure Terratec Aureon 5.1 MK2 USB card to downmix
5.1 to 4.0. I have tried this time to time on linux but never got it
working. All the other variations shows up correctly (4.1, 5.0 and 5.1)
but 4.0 is not even listed e.g. on pavucontrol GUI.
I have created a new udev rule to ensure the same configuration is
always used. Udev calls profile "terratec-aureon-51.conf". Currently
there exists only two mappings: 4.0 and 4.1. And only 4.1 shows up
correctly..
