Dear Sirs,

I've noticed that the emu10k1-driver inverts the channels (left should be right and vice versa). This is noticed when playing games, listening to music or watching videos (e.g. the car moves from the left to the right, but the sound goes from right to left). I consider that a serious problem, and the only way to avoid this is to invert the speakers manually or change the cables, which are correctly attached.
I use a soundblaster Live!Player 5.1.
Anyway, I would like to ask also if you could make the emu10k1-driver support 6 channels in the near future, that way that you have 5.1-sound in xine or other video players.

Regards,

Werner
