Hoping someone can assist due to my lack of IT knowledge...

Got a laptop with HDMI output running High Definition (HD) Audio, Conexant® CX20671 codec Audio support.

Problem i'm having is when i plug the laptop into my AV receiver via HDMI to watch HD movies, i only get Stereo sound passed through not 5.1. I'm choosing 5.1 in the audio track settings on VLC and Media Player etc but still only passing through 2 chan..

Any thoughts as to what i'm doing wrong?
