    5.1 in vista?

    I have a soundblaster audigy SE but i can't seem to get all 5 speakers working. I can only get 2.1 in music, movies, and games. The testing works though with the drivers, meaning when i test channeling, noise comes out of all speakers. What am i doing wrong? Is there a glitch?
