Playing the Mass Effect 1 PS4 version (on PS5) and all dialogue and sound effects are coming from the rear channels. Dialogue should be coming from the center channel. This is highly distracting and breaks immersion. Please fix asap.
@garionorb Can I check on your exact audio setup? If you have details of your PS5's audio settings that might help too.
@bentl78 Hey, do you happen to have a link to any specific Reddit posts reporting this. Every bit of info helps.
Thanks.

@EA_David I use a Sony receiver, STR-DN1060, connected from my TV using an optical cable. Standard 5.1 surround speaker setup. PS5 connected to the TV with the included HDMI cable. Audio settings on the PS5 is set to "Dolby". This works for all games and movies/TV except this game.

Got the same issue. My PS5 is set up for 7.1 with Dolby but all conversations are coming from my surround speakers instead of the center one. Out of conversations, some speeches do come from the center speaker though

I can't get anything to work except stereo audio. Don't get anything in my surround speakers or center.

I'm having the same issue. PS5, 5.1, Denon S650 receiver, HDMI ARC connection.

Same problem here, at least I'm not alone with this. I'm using 7.1.4 Dolby Atmos setup from Samsung. PS5 > sound bar > Philips hue syncbox > Sony Bravia TV. First game to have this problem.

@CarvapercI'd like to add that surround is working, but my problem is mostly with conversations. When you talk with someone, almost all the vocal sounds comes from rear speakers. I did try playing without rear speakers and I did hear all the sounds coming normally out from other speakers. Oh and I use AV amplifier, 7.1 ch, Linear PCM.

How did you get surround to work at all? The game only outputs stereo.

There are quite a few posts about this on the mass effect subreddit--

Same issue. Ps5 to Sony x900h (HDMI 4) to Yamaha tsr700 via eArc. Ps5 set for PCM and receiver set for surround decode.

Same issue here. Playing on PS5 with a Sony X900H and Sony STR-DG710 Multi-Channel Receiver in 5.1 setup. Have tried multiple settings on the TV, receiver and PS5. Hope this gets patched. Not sure how this didn't get mentioned in any preview coverage for the past week.
