Yes. I have the same audiosystem as you (with the same boxes) and it all
worked pretty well with alsa 0.5. I had tried 0.9 once, but it just did no
t work right, so I went back to 0.5. About a month ago I tried 0.9 again,
but I only could get sound out of one speaker and encountered other
problems, so I went back to the OSS driver, which works fine now. Perhaps
one day I will give alsa a try again when I use kernel 2.5 (alsa is
integrated there).

With alsa, use alsamix. You can also try to set the sound registers
manually, but I did not succeed this time. I got back to the OSS driver
and use kmix and got sound out of all four speakers. My center speaker is
still silent.
Hopefully that helps something.

NT is the OS of the future. The main engine is the 16-bit Subsystem
(also called MS-DOS Subsystem). Above that, there is the windoze 95/98
16-bit Subsystem. Anyone can see that 16+16=32, so windoze NT is a
*real* 32-bit system.
