i'm having the same issue. At first i could get audio in Stereo from the spdif port on Ubuntu 13.04 with Kernel 3.8 but no 5.1. I tried install 3.10 and then 3.11 but both made me lose sound completely. I don't have a Windows partition so i couldnt try booting into windows.
I have a creative recon3d fatal1ty champion.
Do you think that if i install the latest version of Ubuntu 13.10 it will change anything?
What about using the latest version of Mint or Fedora? Would that have better chances of working?
Please i need help. I've been playing quite a bit with Linux these past few months and i understand well commands but when it comes to sound, eiditing files or pulseaudio im completely new and would need some intructions if i'm to try any suggestions.
