I was discussing this here once already. In 2.1 mode LFE just doesn't work. Instead when I test LFE speaker in sound settings there is weird long noise in one of rare speakers. I have no idea about reason of this, so instead of 2.1 I'm using 5.1 mode, which works fine. My system is Ubuntu 16.04 x64, so packages: alsa-base: 1.0.25+dfsg-0ubuntu5 alsa-utils: 1.0.29-1ubuntu1 If there is any ppa to try newer packages - I can do that.
