mpeg2 from hd timeline problem at DVinfo.net

Hello, I'm trying to create an mpeg 2 file from my sony ex1 timeline in final cut pro so that i can burn that to DVD, but i keep running into the same problem. My workflow so far is:

export my timeline directly into compressor
select the best dvd/mpeg 2 seting for 90 minutes
then submit that to render

Now my results are an ok looking mpeg file with no sound playing whatsoever. I've dragged the file into final cut pro to see if there was any sound attached to the file but nope, nothing there just video. I've also made sure im using the latest verson of compressor and updated the software.

I'm very new to the mac world, so I assume theres an easy workaround or something I'm doing wrong.

Thank you
