Specs
I7 2.8ghz @ 3.0
12 gb 16000 Ram
ATI 5870 (updated driver)
Creative Xi-fi Pro (updated drivers)

Dialogue in cut scenes is non existant or super quiet.
If i put the sound into headphones or force to stereo, sound levels are fine.

I had a Problem with 5.1 too. There seemed to be only stereo Sound. So I looked into the dragonage.ini. There was UseStereoSound=1
Although i did not set it ingame. I changed it to UseStereoSound=0 and i finally have my 5.1 working.
Hope it helps.

It would be so much easier if they just had the option to pick 5.1 sound from the options menu like most modern games. Mine was already set at 0 and I still can barely hear the voices at 10 with the other sounds at 5 during cutscenes. I hope my 5.1 sound is actually working like it should in this game.

Aha.

Indeed, I misread the post earlier - mine was set at zero, and changed it to 1 - that is what fixed it.

Ow3n, maybe you could try changing to 1 as well and see if it helps?

I gave that a try and the only reason it sounds louder is because it is just using the stereo sound and not using each audio channel like it would in 5.1 sound.  Maybe there is a config option to make the Voice audio go past 11 to balance it out the other audio or hopefully it will be fixed in a patch.

@Boiorix yeah its not so much an issue of 5.1 sound not work, but the levels in the sound not being correct.

@Ow3n Its true that the sound levels are not working correctly in 5.1, at least under creative drivers.

Any update / acknowledgement from bioware would be great.

I am using a Creative X-Fi so maybe it is a Creative issue in combination with DA2 even though you would think that Bioware would have tested the game with a Creative soundcard since a lot of people own them. Hopefully this will be addressed wit ha patch at some point and not just be forced to play the game in stereo sound to actual hear the people speaking during cutscenes.
