7.1 audio turns into 5.1

7.1 audio turns into 5.1

What's happening is that 7.1 audio seems to be getting turned into 5.1 audio. Sound that should come out of "left rear surround" instead come out of "left surround", and the same on the right.

I've tried:

  • reboting
  • using hackintool to rebuild kext cache/repair permissions
  • updating OpenCore/kexts

I'm on Ventura 13.6.6. I'm using OpenCore-0.9.9-RELEASE.

I have a 7.2 Marantz receiver model NR1711 which is connected to a benQ projector. The projector isn't involved with sound so I didn't look up the model but I can.

This is the receiver:

My audio MIDI setup looks like:

I also tried different kHZ settings and it makes no difference.

Any help is appreciated, thanks.
