Converting multichannel file to stereo with down-mix.

Hi.

I'm trying to figure out how I can convert a multichannel (surround) audio file to stereo using the ExtAudioFile and Audio Converter APIs. I would like the stereo output file to be a fold-down mix of all the channels, similar to what quicktime does. No matter what I try, the resulting stereo file only has the first two channels of the source file.

For example, I have a 6-channel AIF file whose channel layout is kAudioChannelLayoutTag_MPEG_5_1_A (L R C LFE Ls Rs). I've tried setting the ExtAudioFile's client and file channel layout... I've tried setting the Audio Converter's input and output channel layout. I always get only the L and R channels on the output. Is there any possible way to do a fold-down mix using Core Audio?

Thanks.
Mark Verstraete
