Which version of linux has support for Dolby Advanced Audio v2?


I am using LENEVO G500 Laptop and my sound card has support for Dolby Advanced Audio v2 that works nicely in Windows OS (i.e. Windows 7, 8 and 8.1). However I have failed to enable Dolby sound effect in my Linux OS (have tried it with Linux Mint 17, Fedora 20).

Does anyone have an idea which linux version has support for this feature or how I can enable in a linux OS.

I would appreciate if you could direct me to the right direction.

Thanks.

  • After a bit of research I found this explanation that seems to have satisfied my query. It generally says ...

    There isn't going to be an easy fix for this, unless Dolby releases a Linux driver or publishes more information on what exactly their software is doing (which is unlikely).
