How to get 5.1 channels working on WoW+Wine?

Hi there,

Husse helped me getting my 5.1 surround sound working on my Mint, and is amazing! But when I play WoW only the rear and front speakers work, the sub/center doesn't. I think is a problem of misconfiguration on Wine, or perhaps a Config.confused missetting. It could be a current bug on wine too. Well, can someone help me with a solution or a hint?

Thx.

Bump.

I contacted blizz about this issue. The answer was: "We do not support our games on Linux". Plain and simple. Then I argumented that WoW runs on Wine, and is therefore running on an API very similar to the Windows one. For any matter, the solution would be pretty much the same, should I was using Windows or Linux. Then again, the asnwer was just one line: "We do not support our games on Linux".

Su** this blizz support...

Well, anyone please? Or maybe I posted on the wrong forum?

Thx.
