Most AC3 channels do have a lower volume due to the fact that the dynanic range of AC3 is much more than 100dB. This is much more than you can do with Mpeg Audio and raw PCM at 16bit[1].
Hmmm - I'm missing the logic here. If the average level of an AC3 channel is below the other (PCM) channels, I turn the receiver up anyway. The next explosion - well, you get the idea.
