Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.
As far as I know you can't do that. I ran into the same issue with trying to simultaneously output front L/R via analog and rear L/R + center via optical from the sound card. You need an external processing unit to accomplish this, like an Emotiva UMC-1.
My Sondigo lets me do this, but only in stereo. Any other CMI8788 based sound card is going to be the same. It allows both the Optical out (PCM stereo) and Front speakers output to be selected simultaneously in the control panel.
