Music isnt recorder in multiple channels AFAIK. Some is in 5.1 but I've never heard of any in 7.1.....

In theory the Creative programs will convert it into 7.1 sound, so with the correct settings in Creative it should work.

In theory

begs the question, why would you want to listen in 7.1 surround?

ffdshow will do it.
ffdshow will decode about any audio or video you might want to use also.
The main site doesn't seem to be working atm but just search on google.

I would uninstall everything else apart from that.
ffdshow works by replacing other codecs.
When playing whatever ffdshow icon should come up in the taskbar.
If you manage to get it to do that I can tell you how to get it through all speakers.

click on the ffdshow that comes up in the taskbar to get the options up.
Go to the mixer option.
Tick that then pick what option you want to use in the dropdown box.
I only have 5.1 here so not sure exactly what options you'll have.
