A question I asked recently on this list and got an answer for. It's a
patch to have a 'preferred' audio language track:

Alternatively, if you have fixed channels configured and dont have auto
channel update enabled, you can manually edit the channels.conf and
remove the PIDS for languages you dont want.

Note that some channels do another trick, which is to put one language
on one audio channel (left), another on the other channel (right).
There's no way I know of to deal with this properly except to twiddle
with the balance with your audio system.
