When using my headset, I like to have some of the mic audio mixed back into the headphones. However, the option is entirely missing from this driver and all the others I have tried as well. Is there a way to expose this option using the tweak utility? I know that the hardware mixer supports it (it works in Linux), and I know that the realtek drivers can do it on other hardware (I have a different computer with realtek that does have the option available). So it seems like it's just being hidden from the Realtek Audio Console/HD Audio Manager.

Black connector? My current black connector are in the Rear , Green in Line out and Orange in C/SUB according to the picture
Which do you want to me try to switch?
Yes it work fine if it in standard version.
EDIT : I switch the black connector from Rear to Line IN and change Line IN to Side Speaker out and it worked !

just make sure you are using dolby digital live or dts interactive
if you arent using it then its going to default to stereo unless the game supports dolby digital/dts, not only that but movies with flac/aac audio will be reencoded to DDL/DTS:I because without it they will pass as PCM to your home theather/reciever and digital coaxial/optical only supports 2 channels with PCM but it can do 5.1 with dolby/dts as they are compressed (this is a bandwith limitation for spdif)
also, please note that there are some limitations with surround sound in horizon https://www.pcgamingwiki.com/wiki/Horizon_Zero_Dawn#Audio
keep an eye on the pc gaming wiki as some games have issues with surround sound and the problem might be the game itself instead of the driver
Thanks for that answer! ..
I got everything set to DTS interactive .. and the Horizon Zero Dawn wiki says
| Surround sound | Output is automatically set to what the output audio device supports. |
|---|
So i don't understand why i dont get 5.1 sound with my settings ... i couldn't get any game i tried to output 5.1 sound my rear boxes are always silent

hi @Alan Finote im new here and really need your help,
my setup is PC running Windows 10 (1903) with Sound Blaster X-Fi Surround 5.1 Pro connected by USB.
i have cable connected to the SPDIF to Logitech Z906.
but i don't think my Logitech getting any 5.1 sound.
the LED on the Logitech that indicate Decode is never turn on, and on netflix test i hear the sound from all speakers, so i think its 2.1 and the Logitech send it to all of them.
and on some point i cant enable DDL anymore, i click the checkbox but than it gone.
I tried to install all kinds of software and drivers I found on the net, they did not solve the problem, and now I do not see the possibility at all to choose DDL.
i have download your package " AAFAudioPackDCH-6.0.9013.1.exe" but I'm not sure it's relevant at all, because I see Realtek stuff there.
so, for my setup, your package should help? or I'm wasting time in the wrong direction?
If your package can help exactly my situation, I would be happy if you could write me what exactly in the installation I should mark, and what should be done after booting?
And do I need to remove all Creative drivers before using it?
Thank you very much, hope you can help me, and apologize for the English, not my native language

If your device is from Creative, I recommend you download the appropriate drivers from the manufacturer's website or ask H4cziLLa for guidance.
You must NOT install my package.
Oops, it's too late...
Before I wrote here I tried to install to see if it would help somehow, ill uninstall it.
Thanks so much for the quick response, I will try to post in @H4cziLLa thread.
tried this too still there is no 5.1 sound with i.e Horizon Zero Dawn ... and other games

Funny you should mention this game... I've experienced a sudden brief buzzing (not unlike what you hear before a BSOD) and then the audio in the game gets cut off like it's been muted or something. Exiting the game causes it to become unresponsive, but everything in desktop works fine afterward.
@Alan Finote do you know if there is a tweak tool option to enable mixing mic into headset? I know my hardware supports it (works in Linux), but the option is missing. Thanks for all your amazing work!
Can you play other games with 5.1 ? and this drivers ?
For Remnant from The Ashes i cannot get output to the rear speakers either
Can anyone help me to get 5.1 sound with my Acer Aspire black edition v17 nitro over SPDIF with Logitech Z906.

Good Day. Thanks so much for all the energy in making these driver alterations.
I have my Alienware Aurora R8 using realtek drivers hooked up to a Pioneer receiver using an optical cable. I can't for the life of my get 5.1 surround to work. I've read through several pages and have tried tweaking for a few hours. Any recommendations would be appreciated.
Thanks!
