i have the same problem on an 5.1 system. when someone speaks in front of me the sound comes from behind. also the sound of monsters are not correct. sometimes i don't know which direction.

I ran into this issue straight away on my system (PC Game Pass version, 5.1 audio via onboard Realtek ALC1220.

The fix for me was changing my output mode from 24-bit and 48,000Hz to 16-bit and 44,100Hz. NPC voices aren't pushed out to the periphery and my pistol audio now comes from the center, rather than a surround speaker. Can't guarantee that this will work for everyone, but it did for me.

Same for me for a 7.1 setup, i tried pretty much every combination of signal quality + 5.1/7.1 speaker configuration. Unfortunately, the problem persists.

It sounds as if some sources like npc voices, weapon sounds, etc. are being upscaled instead of correctly rendered within space.

I really hope it's a bug as it's distracting af.
