I just ran into this problem and found this topic. I took the movie back once, and almost a second time before I decided to see if others were having this problem. I attempted the work around, and my 1050 also defaults to 6.1, even if you attempt to turn it off. This is definitely not a true work around for those without a center rear speaker. Please keep this topic up to date if anyone is receiving new information from Outlaw. I hope they are truely looking into the problem.
