No Surround Sound

when watching tv or playing video games only the three front speakers are working and the two side speakers dont , however, when i listen to music or watch dvds through the surrond sound system all speakers work, how can i get it to work with all five speakers when the source of sound isnt the surround sound system itself?

Need to know your TV make and model to be sure. Coby only allows stereo input from TV, not surround. Coby uses surround output from DVD media, not TV.
