The proper way to deal with this is to lowpass the LFE before downmixing, and filter out the higher frequencies, unfortunately LAV does not support such a functionality (yet).

Interesting... so, why don't other movies have this problem? I have tons of DTS 7.1 movies which, by definition, all have LFE tracks. Did the audio technicians who mastered these other movies' audio simply cut out the higher frequencies in the LFE track, unlike the guys behind the Star Wars audio mastering? If that's the case, then the problem isn't Star Wars's unique 6.1 audio itself, correct? And that any audio of any surround configuration would have the same problem if they didn't take out the high frequencies in the LFE track?
