Downmix problems with Compressor 2

    I'm using Compressor 2, and trying to generate an AC3 Dolby 5.1 file that will work on both surround sound and 2-speaker setups. I've configured my Downmix controls so that the Center Downmix is at -6db and the Surround Downmix is at -infinity. Yet when I play the resulting DVD on every 2-speaker-system set-up I have--DVD Player on my Mac, the DVD/TV setup in my bedroom, even in Compressor itself--the surround track is distinctly playing at full-volume, when--by setting it to minus infinity--it shouldn't be playing at all during the downmix.

    Any ideas as to what's going wrong here?

    Please...desperate for an answer!

    Thanks.
