    How to get 5.1 sounds from Realtek HD Audio after upgrading to Win10 from 8.1

    I also have realtek HD audio, but am having the same issue with 5.1 Dolby digital live. "failed to play test tone"

    would this fall under the same issue as DTS 5.1?

    upgraded from Win 7

    I have tried official Realtek R2.79 drivers. still "failed to play test tone"

    I can get 2 channel sound, just no 5.1
