Daniel,

Thanks for the different perspectives.

Have the tv hooked to Onkyo receiver through ARC (not compatible with eARC). The blue-ray dvd player is hooked into the receiver directly

Ran a calibration test again and the speaker output was mixed up even though the wiring was correct.

Rewired the speaker inputs into the receiver to correct the mixed up output. Ran another calibration test and suddenly the outputs were correct.
Audio was coming out of the correct speakers even though those speakers were connected to the receiver ports that were incorrect!

After the re-calibration all is working normally. Must be some miscommunication between the new Sony x950G and older model Onkyo tx-nr616.
