@EA_David Pc connected to tv via DVI, tv to Onkyo amplifier via optical - stereo speakers. Doors do not sound like they are opening but when behind me I can hear them close, subtitles show up for npcs talking around me but unless I get right up on top of them I cannot hear them, gunshots are absurdly loud...the entire balance of the audio is off.
I also have this problem. PC is connected to my Nakamichi soundbar via HDMI. Selectong stereo in my PC’s sound settings gives me surround sound, but any other option (5.1, 7.1) had NO surround sound. Stereo is a temporary fix as the audio is terrible compared to 7.1 that I usually get from other games.
I will also say, I played the original Mass Effect in January and I did not have this problem. Surround sound audio worked normally.
