ps3 audio help

[SGroz]

I have a ps3, pioneer vsx-918v, and a 42" sharp aquos. I have a HDMI cable running from my ps3 to my pioneer, then a HDMI cable from the pioneer to the tv. Picture is great but for some reason I will not receive full surround from the speakers, only the 2 fronts and sub have output. PS3 audio settings are set to HDMI with dts and dolby digital both checked. PLEASE HELP!
