Resolution Note:
We were unable to reproduce the reported issue. Our testing was conducted using a 5.1 surround sound speaker setup on macOS. We tested both the user-provided project and a custom reproduction project, utilizing the "Surround 5.1," "Quad," and "Surround 7.1" Default Speaker Mode settings. In all cases, we did not encounter any significant silence in the rear channels.
We recommend verifying that your hardware is correctly connected and configured in the macOS Audio MIDI Setup application. This ensures proper audio routing and channel mapping for your surround sound setup.
