Comment 2 for bug 1903848

Okay, so my "solution" to this problem was to just enable short-term distribution support in the Software Updater, and to update to Ubuntu 20.10, the kernel is now ' 5.8.0-29-generic x86_64 ' and it actually recognizes the whole 5.1 audio system instead of just stereo audio.

Although this might not be the ideal solution for everyone, at least it solved _this_ issue. I'm kinda worried, though, that the underlying cause for this (as reported by so many) will remain unsolved.

Oh well, the only way is forward.
