OK. First off I've tried search the forums for this issue and I haven't found anything so please forgive me if this question has been asked and answered before.

I recently bought a set of surround sound speakers. I'm still fussing with settings, trying to get everything to sound right. For whatever reason, and MWO is the only game that seems to have this problem, the center and sub are swapped. I've tried playing BF4, incoming radio chatter is supposed to come out of the center speaker and it does. I've tried out Arkham City and the center speaker seems to function fine there (though I have to turn up the center speaker a bit in order to hear my own footsteps).

However, everything that comes out of the center speaker sounds muffled or distorted in MWO. On a whim I picked the option in my driver settings to swap center and sub, suddenly I had music coming from my center speaker, and mech footsteps from the mechs surrounding sounded right (before they were barely audible coming from the center while they sounded just find coming from the left and right).

I really don't want to have to go through the menus and switch these two speakers every time I play, I will if I have to but I'm hoping there's a solution to this issue from within MWO.
