> Added a new configuration option: remix-non-lfe-channels (default: yes), which results in the non-lfe channels being highpass-filtered.
> When set to false, the lfe channel is lowpass-filtered and the other channels stay untouched.
> Removing the low frequencies from speakers that support low frequencies sounds awful.
> The current behavior is the default, since this case is less likely than speakers not playing well with low frequencies.

I tend to reject the patch. In the use case with satellite speakers
that are able to reproduce low frequencies, enabling LFE remixing (and
thus the filter) is a user error.
