There seems to be a strange issue with Amnesia accepting my 5.1 surround.
Whenever I start it up from Steam, it gives me options to choose my audio output, so I choose my Creative XFi Titanium 5.1 analogue output... when it goes into the game itself, I get nothing from my LFE (subwoofer)(the sound comes from all the other speakers but it seems a bit quiet).
From alsamixer and pulsedaemon, all the channels and remixing are allowed so that every other program works like a charm.
The solution for this, I found out, is to go to the terminal and type:
cd [path to amnesia]/Amnesia\ The\ Dark\ Descent/
ln -sf all/libopenal.so.1 libs64
./Launcher.bin64
That way it starts the launcher and I can select ALSA output which gives me 5.1. And right now I saved it as a script and I start the game from that script every time... however this way Steam doesn't "count" the game as running.
This bug was closed because the issue concerns the game and not the Steam client. Please contact the game developer on their official website with this information.
