Audio - music yes, narration no?

Audio - music yes, narration no?

I have a simple DVD with a short musical stinger at the start and then a simple
track with narration. On *some* computers the stinger plays just fine but it
goes silent when the narration starts. This is an NTSC DVD with a Dolby 2.0
soundtrack burned from Encore 2.0. BTW, the same thing happens when I burn the
DVDs directly from Premiere 2.0.

Ideas?

I figured out what has happened but I have no idea how it happened . . .

The narration section's two channels are 180-degrees out of phase. So on a
system that, for some reason, combines the two stereo channels into one . . .
you get silence.

Fixed it in Audition by selecting the narration section of one channel and
inverting it.
