TV Shows defaulting to audio track with commentary

Some shows, like Supernatural and Brun Notice are starting with the audio track that includes director's commentary and I have to keep manually changing back to the primary audio track. Any helpful tips to figure out why this is happening?

Fortunately, it happened last night.

It chose the "English AC3 Stereo" audio track instead of the "English DTS-HD MA 5.1 (Default)" audio track.

Under "Stats for Nerds":

Roku STB 3941x2
Emby 4.1.17

Stream

MKV (26.54 Mbs) -> HLS (8Mbs 87 fps) Reducing bitrate due to quality setting

Video

1080 H264 -> Transcode (H264 7.776 Mbs)

Audio

English DTS-HD MA 5.1 (Default) -> Direct Play

@Luke - Apologies for skipping steps. I missed that post somehow or I'd have followed it. I think the logs have rotated at this point, so I'll put a pin in this and the next time it happens, I'll grab logs right away.

Discussion on how to change the audio track order of the media file: https://superuser.com/questions/1440629/change-audio-track-order-in-mkv-files
You can also remux the file with AVIDemux and there is a way to switch audio tracks in the audio control menu.  You just flip the choices of which comes first and remux or encode if you want to convert.  Remuxing with encoding takes about 1 minute per 2 hour media.

Correction: Remuxing without encoding, takes about 1 minute per 2 hour media.

Not really sure you can put a duration on a remux operation.   It's related to the size of the source file, media source (hdd/ssd) etc

I can assume you that remuxing a 100 MB MKV on an NVME is of magnitudes faster than trying to remux a 100 GB MKV on a slow HDD .. ;)

It takes me under 2 minutes to remux 3GB on a notebook i7 Windows 10.  That seemed like a good average.  Who is archiving 100GB media?  Whew!

That sounds kind of slow, but it is a laptop I guess. I can usually remux a file of that size within a few seconds. Return of the King is ~125GB. It takes me about 6 minutes to remux it. It's going to depend a lot on your hardware.

yep..  this is my point - an extreme example, but you are not going to remux this in 2 minutes .. ;)
