So I'm having an annoying issue, hoping someone can help.
I have all of my devices connected to my B6, and then my B6 outputting to my receiver through the ARC input. This makes it easy for me to control everything with the LG remote, and have all my settings saved the way I like them on each input.
Everything looks and sounds fine, except my PC is only outputting stereo audio. When I look in my sound settings, it doesn't recognize the ability to play 5.1 through that device. From what I can tell, it looks like the B6 driver doesn't support anything beyond stereo audio.
Am I missing a setting that would allow my PC to recognize that it can pass through 5.1 audio? Right now I have Sound Out as Audio Out (Optical/HDMI ARC) with Digital Sound OUt set to Auto and SIMPLINK (HDMI-CEC) set to On. Everything else besides my PC is working great, so it's super frustrating!
Should I be running everything through my receiver instead? Doesn't that setup tie you to a single input setting?
