You just opened pandora's box of tips for your problem, tyson...
Try disabling all audio processing.

Does that help?
Anyway, what soundcard, receiver and speakers do you have?

Are you really sure that it's a kind of DTS Audio CD? KMP does not support DTS Audio CD playback. It only works with commercial product.

If that doesn't work, leave audio processing disabled if you don't plan on using any of its features (the same goes for video processing, btw...) and try this (I once had about the same problem, only i was viewing lord of the rings and it had ac3 sound and the sound went nuts...):
Use ac3 filter for ac3 and dts sound.

Since you use 2.1 speakers, you could redirect all the low frequencies to the woofer (that is, IF you directly connect the woofer into the orange jack output from you onboard soundcard). If you only connect the green jack to the Line Out of your soundcard, that means you cannot redirect anything to the woofer, and that the L+R signal is being redistributed to you Left, Right and Woofer speakers.

Does it work now? :D

I am using Kmplayer to play 5.1 DTS Audio in CD or File format by adding the WinDVD drivers to Kmplayer. It's perfect !

Are you sure? I've never heard it is possible to play DTS audio cd with any kind of non commercial products. Though KMP supports .dts and .dtswav file playback, it's totally different format from DTS audio cd. As far as I know, there is no free splitter available which can analyze dts audio cd, as well as standalone directshow filter that is commercial.

If it is true, would you let us know what to do for playback of DTS audio cd with kmp?

Are u sure you are using the newest version? Because I am currently using the latest stable version, KMPlayer 2.9.1.1045... Look in the about window to check.
I sure wish I got my hands on a DTS CD to see what happens during playback... But it should behave just like a DVD that has DTS sound, shouldn't it?
In you setting pic, change the settings to 2/0 - stereo in ac3 and dts boxes and uncheck the ac3 and dts in the lower half of the screen... Like I first said...pandora's box, man...

Correction in my postings.
It's a dvd audio, not dts audio. Sorry for wrong infomation.
