cmipci + alsa + 5.1 WORKING

[Moofed]

I posted here months ago trying to get surround sound out of my cmedia 8738 sound card, and now I've finally succeded! The details:
For the record, /proc/asound/card says my card is a CMI8738-MC6 model 55. I am using alsa 0.9.5.
First the mixer must be set right. "Exchange DAC" should be unmuted and Four Channel Mode should be muted.
To set up Xine for 5.1 sound you must first set "configuration experience level" to "advanced", then enable "five_lfe_channel" and set the 5.1 channel device to "hw:0,1" in the audio tab.
For mplayer i had to modify my .asoundrc:
