Surround sound refuses to work with C-Media CMI-8788 soundcards - Lee_Stricklin - 01-14-2017

It used to be possible in older versions of Xonotic and before it Nexuiz, but for whatever reason I cannot get anything other than stereo sound to work. 5.1 and 7.1 is an absolute no go. Interestingly this was tried with two different soundcards (Asus Xonar DS and Auzentech X Meridian 7.1) under Windows 8, Windows 10, and several flavors of Linux. Even more interestingly it also refused to work correctly under Rexuiz, leading me to believe that this is a DarkPlaces issue.

Aren't we handling this through SDL 2?

I'm happy to report that this issue is fixed in the current git.
