If not I guess I'll use 2xstereo...

PC surround sound is a funky thing. Basically the only serious way to do it is with Analog connections which is a pain in the butt and does not work with too many games.
Some games can do surround sound via Dolby Pro Logic or Logic II Try switching your receiver to such to test.
Digital Sound from a PC means just high quality stereo or tracks from DVDs most of the time. Game consoles can do it because their sound standards allow devs to make sure sound goes out right. PCs do not have that luxury.
