If you try that and it works it can eliminate some issues where software will try to send video(I've seen this happen with games) to the receiver. I've had some do 5.1 24/96 and some only 2.0.

The problem is that it's a bit hit or miss on MB drivers and support to what they'll actually provide thru the optical. Now there's a chance you can run the optical from your MB to the receiver for the same results. Just make sure the receiver is set as the audio device. In W10 you can also achieve this by right clicking the speaker icon on the taskbar. While it's still highlighted click configure and follow the steps to set it to 5.1. Older OS's you can just go to control panel and click on sound.Ģ. Go to cortana/search and type 'sound' and click on sound control panel. One of the many, many ways for the next step. Gonna give you instructions for W10 but they pretty much apply to any Windows OS but finding them could be a little different.ġ. There's a few different ways for the next steps so if someone chimes in about something different I'd agree it's probably true. I'd run a HDMI from your 1080TI(remember to set it up as a multiple display in CP). I'd recommend using HDMI to your received but there's a chance the optical might work. My motherboard has an optical out and my Xonar U7 has a coaxial out - I could use one of them to potentially get 5.1 to my receiver, but I'm not sure if that will work or if I need some certain driver or setting. I think it might be because I'm not playing the video on the HDMI monitor, but I'm not sure. The issue is that I can't get 5.1 audio to work. I can run the Netflix app in Windows and it looks great on the Ultrawide.

Receiver: Integra DTS 40.2 (circa 2010 This is a 1080P 7.1 receiver) I mostly use it for gaming and (stereo) music, but with the kids hogging the new TV more and more, I want to be able to watch TV and movies in 5.1 I have a pretty nice 7.1 system in my home office.
