Prelude + Creative Inspire 5700

Is anyone running this setup via optical connector? If so do you get full 5.1 and are all speakers used when playing an mp3 using CMSS?

Thanks

The only way currently to get total 5.1 output with the prelude is via the analogue connectors i.e. the 3 3.5mm (headphone) connectors. Dolby Digital Live i.e. the feature on the prelude which encodes 5.1 streams for use over the optical and coax connections is being enabled via a future driver release, eta is currently somewhere in November apparently.
