Lucky you lol

Manually setting mpc or ffdshow, to output to sides rather than their default (or misread soundcard channel data if thats the case) fixes the problem immediately. Anyone know who would be responsible for this piece of mpc-hc's development, ie the mixer, or the detection of soundcard channel data.
Yes but how did you set the speaker config in Control panel -> Sound -> Configure 5.1 Surround or 7.1 Surround ?
