soundstorm speaker config

I have a nForce2 based motherboard with surround sound, and got the drivers from windows update, but in Vista Beta 2's speaker config panel, I can't change it from Stereo to anything else. The front speakers work fine, but how do I enable my 5.1?

When I did an install on one of the machines I had, Vista took me to the website to update using windows nForce2 drivers. It also locked out the sound on my system. I went back and installed the old nForce2 drivers from the motherboard site and Vista (and the 5.1 speakers) all worked great. I tested Vista on another machine using nForce and did not upgrade the drivers as windows suggested even though it asked me to install them the first time Vista booted. I ignored the message and the old drivers worked great.
