When I watch something on Apple TV+ channel my 5:1 surround sound system works great. But any other app I use I only get sound from right speaker. I have looked at settings and all looks good. Ideas?
Apple TV 4K
Found the solution and it had nothing to do with the Apple TV unit. My receiver/amp has a setting on the remote to change the speaker config, it was set on some strange setting, changed it to MOVIE setting and I now have correct sound from all the correct speakers on my 5:1 system. Thanks to everyone for the suggestions.

Hello ctphoto1,
We're glad you thought to ask Apple Support Communities about the issue you're having with sound only working on the right speaker in various apps. If you haven't already, restart your Apple TV and surround sound system to see if fresh connections help: Restart Apple TV
If that doesn't help, see if calibrating does: Use Apple TV to play audio throughout your home
If the behavior continues, we recommend reaching out to the manufacturer of the surround sound system you're using to have them look into this with you too.
Thanks, and take care.
This has worked for many others when they ae having audio issues:
