That does make sense.  In all the multi-audio channels I've seen, the
streams do have a reason for the order they are listed in the PMT.  The first
one is always the primary audio, with the following streams alternate
languages or the SAP channel from a digital simulcast of an NTSC channel.

But, couldn't the gui just sort the streams by PID?  It seems like
the PMT normally lists the streams in PID order too.
