Hmm, then it's a wrong assignment. "Side" shouldn't be LFE.
Acer calls it "Tuba cinebass" or something like that). Apart from that, the PC has a headphones/SPDIF jack, so I believe it supports 7.1?
No, it's totally irrelevant. (SPDIF is 2-channel only, BTW. Multi-channel is done via compressed formats, but the physical channels are only two.)

It's for 7.1 output. Does the machine have 7.1 output? Takashi
Any idea then on what's going on? I can live with having to mute the speakers manually (the headphones seem to be controllable with 'Subwoofer'), but having to carry an external mic when I have an integrated one is not very good :/
I've read on forums and blogs that, for other acer versions, to make the mic work they use position_fix=0, enable_dma=1 or things like that, but I tried them and no luck :( can you suggest anything else?

These options are usually irrelevant if you can play back.

Is there any way I can get the correct model then? lspci says:
