Music comes in stereo (2 channels), to expand it to 5 speakers, you need to increase the surround spectrum in SoundBlaster Command or in the media player.

If it doesn't work, try doing it on the media player. Fo example, foobar2000 has convert stereo to surround DSP.

The source isn't DTS and therefore the output isn't neither.

Try VLC with HDMI/SPDIF audio passthrough on. But take in mind that encoding MP3s to DTS will not improve the quality.
