Gatling gun sounds direction is reversed.

When using surround sound speakers (5.1), the sound of the fixed gatling appears to be coming from behind when in front, and in front of you when behind. The left/right pan appears to be correct.

How to reproduce:

1. Have 5.1 surround sound setup

2. Shoot gatling

3. Witness sound coming from the wrong direction

Impacts and normal ship sounds appeared to be coming from the correct direction, though I didn't do more than a cursory test. I didn't test ship tools, or anything else.

When using stereo (headphones in my case), the sound of the fixed gatling is louder when looking directly away, suggesting the sound is coming from behind instead of in front.

How to reproduce:

1. Have 2.0 stereo speakers or headphones

2. Shoot gatling

3. Turn to look away - gun gets louder

4. Turn to look at gatling - gun gets quieter

The two attached videos are me starting a gatling firing while looking at it in first and third person and using 5.1 speakers, then pivoting slowly in a full arc to capture the incorrect front/back pan. Audio was recorded in 5.1, so even if you dont have a machine to reproduce you should be able to see the levels are in the wrong places.

I only have one device to easily test this with, but could connect some extra speakers to the hifi receiver/tv and try my laptop tomorrow.
