The issue was indeed the remixing, but oddly I could not disable it by setting the value in /etc/pulse/daemon.conf. I do not have a daemon.conf in my ~/.pulse/ folder, but it still wouldn't read the global one. When I copied the file into my profile it worked fine and everything was good. I also tried the route specified in the wiki where I made all the channels in the channel map "aux0", etc. This did indeed prevent the remixing, but certainly didn't have the desired effect. When I did this all my outputs for all remapped sinks output from the side-right speaker? I have no idea why this is, but it is just another data point. I now have up to 8 zones in my whole home audio matrix switch. We'll see how my design scales. I'll let you all know. Thanks for your help Tanu!

Make sure you edit the correct daemon.conf - if ~/.pulse/daemon.conf exists, /etc/pulse/daemon.conf doesn't have any effect.
