I've got a Mac Book Pro. I want to play some games with surround sound in Windows. My speakers have both optical and 6 channel discrete output cables, but in OS X at least, surround sound in games is not supported over optical, nly over 6 channel discrete.

I want something like this:

Anybody got experience of things like this? (in Windows, as I'll be boot camping.) Is there a noticeable delay in the sound? Does it work well? All help is appreciated.
