This is the 5.1 audio stream issue when you watch on 2.0 or 2.1 setup. Either get a 5.1 system or a sound bar, or use some sort of down sample/compression to combat that.

    k-lite codec pack. Comes with LAV Audio Decoder. You can turn on downmixing for any kind of video file Media Player Classic can play with the pack, and it can play anything. Pretty sure you can use LAV without media player classic or the whole pack, but I haven't tried.

    On Windows MPC-HC is my choice of video player. On linux you got VLC which probably has downmixing.

    I bet this stems from streaming movies on something like myflixer where there is no option to switch from 5.1 to 2.0 and this becomes a huge PITA.

    Also, for Jellyfin users, there is a few downsampling options in the dashboard.
