Glad to hear you got it going, Joe.

one thing we discovered, is that the conversion automatically created the file order:
L,R,C,Lfe,Ls,Rs

After we talked, I did some more research. Because that file order is the EBU standard, it is the standard Microsoft followed when they created Extensible Wave format. It is the same order specified in numerous delivery contracts, and used by Dolby Digital, bla bla bla. Pro Tool's file order during multichannel export (LCRLsRsLfe) is rigid and has caused numerous complaints already. It should be a choice during export. You have to work around it by manually moving files around on the timeline prior to export, in order to make the rest of the world happy. Digi, it is time to ease up on file order restrictions!
Since Extensible Wave is a Microsoft semi-proprietary format, there has not been widespread support for it. Not yet, anyway. Good that you found a potential solution.
