I've made
a topic on an electronics forum I found on Google asking for help on that hardware-based solution. Let's see if anyone will reply...
I believe that the hardware solution is the best solution since it works on all OSes and shouldn't have any added latency (where a software-based solution might introduce more latency).

I understand what you're talking about
Sometimes I use
SRS Audio Sandbox which will make music play in 5.1. It does a good job at it (at least that's what my ears tell me; not sure about your ears
). Give it a try.
