Hi Matthew,

Almost. The input to the "Audio device" should be stereo, then the GFX will 
upmix this to 4 channels going to the sound card (i.e. 4 physical output 
channels/speakers)

So, ultimately, 4 channels are provided to the driver/soundcard, but it should 
look like a stereo endpoint to the user (in Sound Control panel).
