multichannel audio transfers from source to sequence, but only one channel plays

When I play my clip down in the source monitor, I get clear audio on all 3 lavs.  When I cut the audio onto the sequence, only channel one plays despite there clearly being soundwaves on all 3 clips (doesn't play in isolation either).  Sequence settings are same for multicam clip and sequence.  Any other suggestions?

You have the Mix set to Multichannel, do you have a sound card that can playback each separate channel that the sequence outputs? Do you attemt to export to Multichannel? If no, use a sequence with the Mix track set to Stereo.

thanks for the reply.  Yes, seq mix defaults to multichannel, if I open the original multicam sequence on which clip was synced, I can hear all 3 tracks as intended.  My workaround has been to just dup original sequence, delete all the content on it and copy and paste troublesome sequence onto it and now I can hear all 3 tracks.  I'm brand new from Avid so still not getting seq settings and all that now, but your Mix track set to Stereo suggestion seems like the winner. Thanks!
