@pwhodges i did not over look burnout..Don't despute @ all..
and i did not overlook what you said - ya did or did not have trouble with sound on and off till new updates.. and now ya don't have surround sound in opera That you stated.. Perhaps ya overlooked ya own post..
even tho burnout found what he found
you said you had sound b/4 updatei think your the only one lately that has surround sound not working.. that goes for peeps use 'n opera and chrome..
the things ya call - pretty clearly irrelevant.. will not be irrelevant..
i thought the switches may work w/o changing n e audio settings.. for most it worked..
Note - i figured i guess that ya might not wanna fiddle with your cards settings..
not unless you can put it back like it was..
so i'm gunna try to explain incase others have the trouble too..
If the above post either doesn't work or stops working in the future (AGAIN!) For opera/chrome.
depending on how old audio card is..
Changing the Audio mode to (Audio Creation Mode)
(most SB cards have this mode) i dunno if ya card has this option..
but if so
Select Multi-Channel Wave
Under the "Front L/R" fill the check boxes for Rear L/R & Front C/Sub and
it will force the 5.1 signal from opera/chrome that only has the stereo channels being used - to use the L/R Front signals and redirect it to each checkbox you fill !..this example is (SB card).. with Highlights were ya do changes..
its up to you to try or not.. while waitig on a fix *just say 'n..
if nothing works i guess your stuck till opera fix.. *Go Opera Team..
n e ways i'm out.. *hope ya get troubles fixed soon..

--disable-audio-output-resampler --try-supported-channel-layouts --force-wave-audio
I tried that with https://cassland.org/sounds/TestQuad/ just to see if it helps make the player work for me, but it does not.

Everything you have suggested is related to how Opera plays a surround file. The problem is not at that level. Opera is not accepting that a four-channel aac/m4a file is something to play at all. This is clearly shown on the other page I gave a link to:
https://tetrahedral.audio/ta-recordingHalfway down you will see this:
No clever Javascript player like the other test page - just raw HTML5 audio elements. The top one links a stereo file, the lower one links a surround file. You will see that the lower one is greyed out; you cannot click it - Opera will not even attempt to play the file.

https://blogs.opera.com/desktop/2020/05/opera-70-0-3701-0-developer-update/ has a fix for 4-channel audio. Please test in this build to make sure things are working now.

@burnout426 The sound works fine in Vivaldi & Brave, thanks for the help, I did not know about such browsers!
You learn something new everyday!

Good afternoon. I apologize right away. I don’t know the language. I can not read the forum. I’ve been using this browser all my life. Like very much. But I have to listen to music on another browser. Opera does not have normal sound support around. Are you going to fix this problem? How do I enable this mode? Include this in the settings, please.
