"Lost" on ABC: Three minutes of 5.1 channel surround sound with dialogsupressed.

Did anyone else experience this problem? ABC, Wednesday 8pm Pacific.

The first three minutes of "Lost" had wonderful background noises
and background music, but no dialog. Somebody must have punched
the wrong button (set the audio to the foreign distribution "music
and sound effects but no English dialog" channels). The video kept
switching to SD for a few seconds at random; not a very professional job.

It didn't happen here, but I have seen the same thing with other programs. I
also caught part of the Olympics HD broadcast that had two different
soundtracks running concurrently. There was once an episode of CSI where
someone had substituted the SAP channel for the regular audio, and the SAP
channel consisted of spoken commentary for the vision-impaired.
