If I try to record 5.1 sound that is coming from my pulseaudio monitor device
gstreamer cannot get the right channel layout.

This is my gstreamer pipeline and output.

$ gst-launch pulsesrc
device=alsa_output.pci_8086_284b_sound_card_0_alsa_playback_0.monitor ! queue !
audio/x-raw-float,rate=44100,channels=6 ! audioconvert ! vorbisenc quality=0.5
! oggmux ! filesink location=outtest.ogg

** (gst-launch-0.10:7938): WARNING **: Failed to retrieve channel layout from
caps. This usually means there is a GStreamer element that does not implement
multichannel audio correctly. Please file a bug.

You can test it with this sample file.
http://www.lynnepublishing.com/surround/www_lynnemusic_com_surround_test.ac3

If you want to know you monitor device then type this in a terminal:

pactl list | grep monitor

I think you know that already.

If you need more information, then please let me know.
