U need to understand, Music is stereo so they will come throw Front Speakers, try playing some games like Crysis or a newer DVD. U will hear 5.1 surround. & also make sure that u setup your sound manager well. Most common motherboards have Realtek HD manager, double click it & set to 5.1 on speaker config section, & also right click on volume icon on task bar & click playback device & set it to Realtek Audio.  Hope that helps.
