Fixes surround sound in the game by patching the game's code to use the correct speaker profile configured on your system rather than defaulting to Stereo only. This patch is ONLY suitable for the Steam build of Salt v2.0.0 b18 (latest as of 26th Jan 2025).

Changelogs
Version 2.0.0b18
Updated to Salt v2.0.0 b18
Install Guide: Replace the 'Assembly-CSharp.dll' file located in "<Salt folder>/Salt_Data/Managed" with the patched version included in this zip file.
The patch was applied to GameSettingsMaster.cs to apply the speaker profile on game launch.
How does this work?: It hooks into the game code early on, searches for what the correct speaker configuration is on your device and maps it to the Unity audio system. Stereo systems will still be in stereo however 5.1 and 7.1 surround sounds systems will be correctly configured in surround.
Ideally this should be fixed by the game developers.
