Also, did you setup “configure speakers” in the Audio Midi settings for that device output?

Not even connected to the receiver yet (Though I did have it connected last week and only saw 2ch option then). Is the OS smart enought to auto-sense what's connected to only offer 5.1 when available?.

The attached image shows the "Configure Speakers" window and that the "Surround" option is greyed out.
