Based on your previous information about Surround Sound for Mac, I am assuming that is normal.

Just wanted to say Thank You again for getting this fixed for me.

If Apple releases 10.6.3 and I upgrade to that, I am assuming I may need to patch the AppleHDA again right?

I will read other parts of this thread and see if I can get anything from the rear speakers.

On the 1st post, there was some information about Spotlighting the Audio/Midi and messing around with
the speaker setup. Any ideas on how I get to this screen to see what is possible?

Thank you again
I got digging for info myself, come to find out that there are quite a few different versions of VoodooHDA,
made by different people, based on the original file made by some one else, one of them that works for me,
although no surround, is the file here

VoodooPS2 and VoodooHDA (now 0.2.2 with prefPane) drivers for snow leopard 32/64 bit

and another,

Voodoohda Driver, Fully working!

and some people had say removing "AppleHDA.kext" helps, just make sure to
keep a backup

UPDATE

I just removed "AppleHDA.kext" and the file that gets created buy AppleHDA Patcher, "ALCinject.kext"
leaving only "VoodooHDA.kext" and ran "Kext Utility" to clean up, and rebooted, the sound works, still
no surround sound, but one less step

and found another "VoodooHDA.kext", seams to work well and the volume is slightly higher

VoodooHDA (32-/ 64-bit, recompiled by Prasys)
