If you open the systemsettings control panel and go into Media I believe,
you can play with the phonon components and change plugin usage and hardware
usage. You might want to install the phonon-vlc components, they worked well
for me on my 7.1 usb hardware. Also, make sure your sound levels are not
muted... you might want to run 'alsamixer -V all' from the command line and
un-mute anything that is muted. Then when you have your levels set nicely,
run 'sudo alsactl store'
