I'm wondering, if I simply connect my laptop to it via an HDMI cable and set Pd to use HDMI for audio output, will I automatically have the ability to send specific channels of audio to any one of the 7 speakers?
This should work.
Or would it require additional hardware or software? If so, what?
Probably not. It depends more on the hardware and any special drivers that might be required to use it with your OS. Pd only talk to the sound devices that are given to it by the OS. We have used Pd with RME MADI interfaces at work which address 64 or 128 channels.
Note, that you get the "raw" channels directly. Surround or ambisonic mixing is up to you.

Thanks for the reply. I did manage to find a forum post somewhere by someone who got this scenario to work under windows with the ASIO4all driver. I'm running Linux Mint but have a Windows partition if I ever need it. I'll be sure to post back and let people know once I've gotten an opportunity to try it out.

hello,
we succefully use a Raspberry pi under raspbian to play a 5.1 audio file threw hdmi with a specific device, see https://ressources.labomedia.org/expo_noirlac#diffusion_audio_51_-_raspberry... (in french)
it was with omxplayer, but I imagine it can work with pd as well
