I've never tried using a 5.1 system on Linux but AFAIK, support is
lacking. 5.1 support has come recently to Gstreamer; you can try the
latest CVS and see if it works for you.

Read a few posts after the linked one and you'll see him talking about
implementing virtual surround for 2.0 systems by channel downmixing.

Yeah.. so the key is that get the latest Gstreamer and play DVDs using
that backend.
