Hello,

DirectSound doesn't support 4 speakers

[Drew Dormann]

It does indeed, you just need the drivers to support it. Look at the
GetSpeakerConfig docs:

DSSPEAKER_5POINT1
The audio is played through a speaker arrangement of surround speakers with
a subwoofer.
DSSPEAKER_HEADPHONE
The audio is played through headphones.
DSSPEAKER_MONO
The audio is played through a single speaker.
DSSPEAKER_QUAD
The audio is played through quadraphonic speakers.
DSSPEAKER_STEREO
The audio is played through stereo speakers (default value).
DSSPEAKER_SURROUND
The audio is played through surround speakers.

I know with the Creative card I'm using now, I had to turn on the second
stereo speaker port through their software.
