Giving this more thought, maybe I misunderstood you.
I first thought that you had applied the "preferred audio" patch to VDR 1.3.18,
but now I believe that you're using plain vanilla VDR 1.3.18 and just have the
audio PIDs in a sequence that's different than that in the SI data - is that right?

The order of the audio tracks in the audio menu will always be the same as
in the channels.conf entry.

As for the actual problem, I'll need to try this out here, which may take a few
days (it's back to work tomorrow...).
