Q: I get sound coming from only the front speaker with 5.1 surround speakers on KV7 / KD7A board. How to enable the 5.1 speaker output?
A: Please follow the steps below:
1. Enter "Control panel"-> double click "Sounds and Audio Device" icon ->open "Advanced" on "Speakers" panel -> select "5.1 surround sound speakers" in speaker setup under "Advanced Audio Properti es".



2. On the "Sounds and Audio Device Properties" page, click "Advanced" on the "Device Volume" section -> open "Advanced controls for Front speaker" in Front speaker control panel -> Check "SMART 5.1 Enable". If you don't see the "Advanced" button, enable "Advanced Controls" on the "Options" panel.


3. You can get 5.1 sound output only if you play a 5.1 channel format media file using a 5.1 channel enabled software. If you want to hear sounds from all 6 speakers when playing a 2 channel media file, please check the "Magic 5.1 Enable" check box in the Advanced Controls for Rear Speaker.
