OK. Now we get to know how to change modes from 5.1ch surround sound to 
'Dolby Pro Logic II' mode.

Yes. I made mistakes again. (I'm ashamed...)

The last two bytes should be 0x0606.

Within this two bytes, the first byte means the number of data channels 
and the second byte means type of the data channel. So in FireWave, 6ch 
PCM data channel is expressed by 0x0606, 2ch IEC 60958-3 data channel is 
expressed by 0x0200.

I'm sorry to trouble you but I request you to try the sequence of 
commands with these fixes...
