In that case, select Dolby Digital and follow the rest of the process as explained above.For Ubuntu and Linux users, there are many media players to choose from. This, again, depends on your hardware and drivers.
We should mention that you might not see DirectX when you expand Output module and instead see Dolby Digital. When you play audio/video in VLC player, it will play the associated audio in the 5.1 channel. Save the new preferences and you’re done. Select them and from the ‘Speaker configuration’ drop-down select ‘5.1’.
It can be the inline speakers or it can be speakers you’ve hooked up via Bluetooth. It must be the device that supports 5.1 output. Select ‘DirectX’ under ‘Output Module’ and in the right pane, select your output device. In the left column, expand the ‘Audio’ section and then expand the ‘Output modules’ section. The Preferences window will change to show advanced preferences for VLC player. On the left you will see two options under the ‘Show settings’ section Simple and All. Open VLC player’s preferences and scroll down to the very bottom. This includes having the correct sound card and its respective driver installed as well. We assume you have the correct hardware and drivers installed for this.
To set this as a default, you have to go digging a little deeper into VLC’s preferences. The good news is that you can force VLC to always play audio in 5.1 surround sound. Given you have all that and VLC doesn’t automatically play audio in 5.1 and instead just defaults to your stereo speaker settings you’re not going to be able to get much benefit out of your superior speakers. You also need your source audio/video to be compatible with 5.1 audio output. VLC player supports 5.1 surround sound provided you’ve got the right hardware and drivers installed.
