no voices with analog 5.1

[TauTau]

Hi,

I have a movie file, where I can hear music/noise but no voices. I have an Asus ION device and use the analog 5.1 Audio on it. When I set Audio to 2.1 and "stereo on all speakers", I get the voices. What is different with that file, is it some specific codec where 5.1 audio is only on HDMI out or something like that?

Hi
I also have an Asus ION system (AT3N7A-I motherboard). I'm using a Creative 5.1 speaker system for playing media. To output all channels you must make some changes at some of the sound volume levels.
I made this changes with the help of my alsamixer unofficial Add-on (you can read more about it on the openelec wiki).

PS maybe your other movie files are having stereo sound and this movie have 5.1 audio channels?

that sounds like you had to make those changes generally, though I have that problem with only one file (so far). All other files I had until now played fine, so I don't think I have to make some global change...

Maybe you can check your files with mediainfo?
Just to be sure what kind of audio stream you have in your files?
