RIP Speaker Fill

Why have Realtek stopped supporting speaker fill with modern hardware? I liked having Spotify play through all 5.1 speakers on my old rig, but my new build has no option for speaker fill, despite being configured in Windows for 5.1 sound. Anyone managed to find a way round this?

Because they are retards, I have 7.1 speakers and $500 ASUS motherboard, the hardware is capable it's the drivers that are dorked. They just need to include the basic Windows Speaker Fill APO in the drivers.

Yep, it's really annoying 😞
