I recently opened a Wwise project on my mac using an apollo x8 interface. When I set my Authoring Audio Preferences to use this interface it only output stereo. When I changed the Main Mix Configuration from use audio device to 5.1 sound came out of my speakers asigned to the wrong channels and at full volume ignoring my volume controller on the interface.

My Mac Audio/Midi setup is set to a 5.1 output and my channels are routed correctly coming out of DAWs and other applications.

Is there something I am doing wrong to get surround audio detected on my system and coming out the proper speakers?

I opened this project on a windows machine and everything worked perfectly. I am trying to diagnose if this is an issue on Mac or with my interface setup and what Wwise needs to be happy.

Thanks in advance!!!
