Here are few things you need to understand about SupremeFX (Realtek ALC1150):
OPTICAL :
PCM 2.0 - YES (lossless uncompressed format)
PCM 5.1 - NO (lossless uncompressed format)
DTS (5.1) - YES (lossy compressed format)
DOLBY DIGITAL (5.1) - YES (lossy compressed format)
When you play DVD, Blu-Ray, video or audio files with compressed DTS/DD through optical to your Home Theatre receiver you will get 5.1 sound.
Most games will output an uncompressed PCM stream to your receiver (home theatre), although optical only supports PCM 2.0.

What you have to do is as Sparax suggested:
First:
1 - Under the advanced tab you have to set your Default Format to DTS Interactive (5.1 Surround), this way the SupremeFX will encode the outgoing stream as a compressed DTS signal for your home theatre to decode.
2 - Turn off DTS Connect under Enchancements Tab if you want a pure 5.1 signal for games, turn it back on if you want 2-channel music audio to be upmixed into 5.1.
Correct me if I'm wrong?

I don't see how turning off DTS Connect will achieve anything. He will never get PCM 5.1 surround through TOSLINK. I would leave it enabled.
