  I have a Yamaha surround sound receiver and it has individual volume control settings for the front right and left, center, and subwoofer outputs. Yours may have these settings too, and the volume is turned down in those speakers. Although, if the test mode puts out the same volume in each of the speakers, that may not be the problem. Another problem could be that the audio mode your receiver is set to simply doesn't put the sound into any of the speakers besides the towers and the sub. I noticed that my receiver does the same thing for certain audio modes (like a 2-channel stereo mode). And, if I accidentally push the wrong button on the remote, it will change audio modes on me and I will lose a couple of speakers. Of course, when all else fails, read the instruction manual. It will have a troubleshooting section in it toward the back and give you some things to check. If you don't have a manual, you may be able to download a PDF of one from the manufacturer's web site. Otherwise, you may have blown a fuse for the speakers that won't work (some amplifiers have output fuses in them), or the receiver has failed and must be repaired.
