And you never will until YouTube supports surround sound. YouTube still does not support 5.1 as every audio source there is still standard 2.0. Even the 5.1 audio test mixes, if you download them onto a computer & check the media info, they are still 2.0. Even the original series that they have to offer there are in stereo. 

 

I hope that this helps answer your question 🙂
