Yes, the log output will tell you. You need to turn on the 5.1 options in
the xine config first though. I only have a 4 speaker surround, so I can
only turn on that option. 

Besides, can't you tell by listening? ;)

Sample xine output:
audio_oss_out: Opening audio device...
audio_oss_out: using device >/dev/dsp<
audio_oss_out: using SNDCTL_DSP_GETODELAY
audio_oss_out : supported modes are mono stereo 4-channel (5-channel not
enabled in xine config) (5.1-channel not enabled in xine config) 
load_plugins: audio output plugin oss successfully loaded.
xine: xine_init entered
xine: using SSE optimized memcpy()
