I dont know if VoodooHDA works in Tiger but I would try that first. Other than that you would probably need to patch AppleHDA yourself if some other person hasnt done it for your mobo yet...

Thanks...I was not sure if anyone had ever experienced this particular problem with this chip set, but I did find some interesting information while I was browsing on Google. I am not trying to get 8 channel audio per say..just trying to get 5.1 surround to work. There seems to be a way to do this by "fooling" OS X by using a program called "soundflower". Unfortunately I can not use this trick until I can figure out how to update my 10.4.6 installation. That is on another thread here and I am still trying to resolve that issue. Once I get it figured out I will post a fix for anyone else who is experiencing a similar problem with their board.
Again thanks for your support..you guys really know your stuff!
