I was able to convert the the wav to a 7.1 channel flac using audiomuxer, unfortunately I was still getting DirectSound buffer errors. I tried downmixing it to a 5.1 flac and it played just fine. I think this is a out_ds.dll limitation in winamp on any surround greater than 5.1 channels as it plays just fine in MPC/K-lite as you mentioned above.

Even tried it in wacup but still a no go
