I am not sure how to test whether my Logitech g906 speaker is working using the optical output from my Gigabyte X570 Aorus Master. So it's all working now!!! Thanks for the tips here, people. Spotify also forced the AMP to switch to whichever mode I selected, but retained the songs in 2 channel, as it should. Reboot and finish configuration in the 'Sound' window:Ī) on the tab 'Enhancements' check 'Disable all sound effects'ī) on the tab 'Advanced' select 'Dolby Digital Live (5.1 Surround)' or 'DTS Interactive (5.1 Surround)' - FINALLY!!!ĭTS/Dolby Atmos demos & a multi-channel game all worked as expected - the Yamaha AMP switched to whichever default format mode (DTS or Dolby) I selected in the Realtek HD Manager & they accurately had sound coming from surround channels (not mimicking the fronts).Install the driver (run 'Setup.exe' from the extracted driver) - here you might get a warning from Windows that the driver is not signed!.exe file (using WinRAR for example) to access the contained files and patch 'RltkAPO.dll' and 'RltkAPO64.dll' in the 'WIN64' directory (see '' section in the patcher user interface). Download a driver that is still compatible with the patcher - in my case I've used version 2.82, the file name is '0009-64bit_Win7_Win8_Win81_Win10_R282.exe' (this is a two year old driver!!! I've tried to use the official one for my motherboard but the patcher didn't work).You need to download this patcher ( alternative link) that will enable the missing features.I followed the instructions here (which I found after Googled this issue & included my motherboard). Once that's done, then you can patch the relevant files with this patch file moved into the drivers folder containing the two files that need patching. This patch caused the most headaches, as you needed to (a) Allow Windows to access it in Windows Defender & (b) delve into the file properties & allow permission for all users listed.

& I used the Patch others here have used.
