I think at times, it just has to be either my hearing is going bad or terrible mixing. I have a 5.1 system, upgraded the center channel from a 2 to 5 woofer speaker, have the center channel audio maxed and there are still times I can barely hear dialogue. Sure, I can turn the audio up to 11 but then action scenes make it sound like an actual explosion in my living room.

Oddly, when I listen to music / only audio on the same system, I can keep it at a low volume and hear everything fine.

So, maybe my hearing isn’t going, yet.

That's a dynamic range and auto leveling problem.
