I wish we just had sound infrastructure that was capable of taking arbitrary input channels and then remixing them to the output channels that are actually there. It just seems like an essential feature of modern sound systems on PC (and in general, really).
Check your vlc settings to ensure the speaker setup matches your arrangement (so it's not sending 5.1 to some stereo speakers)

Yes! This would be a great OS addition - instead, have some lukewarm AI!
