Hi all -
my first post
After many years on an old AMD Gigabyte board i recently upgraded to the Z370 Aorus 7 and I cant seem to get 5.1 sound working correctly on my board, ive got the latest Realtek drivers from the gigabyte support site when I test the speakers I am getting good sound from the FL/FR, the Centre and RL/RR are very low volume; you can just hear them; the Sub appears ok. (i have even tried the drivers from Realtek)
I know the speaker wiring is good as if I switch physical connections for front to rear the actual speakers are working fine.
The retasking of the audio connections also appears correct, as documented in the board manual. Ive even retasked them and get the same effects of low sound on the rear and centre.
I was under the impression I should get amplified sound on all channels and didn’t need to resort to SPDIF and a separate 5.1 amp.
Am I missing anything ? Does this actually work as ive seen another post

Cheers
