Default epilepsy and auditory processing disorder?

My 20 year old recently took an aptitude test, and the examiner threw out the results because she felt that they were invalid, compared to her good ACT score. She told me that she thought my daughter might have a communication disorder. Since she was in speech classes in school for fluency, I have had her speech diagnosed as normal several times, but I have never done central auditory testing, which I have scheduled for her. When I read the info on the web, auditory processing problems seem to be very prevalent in temporal lobe epilepsy, but no neurologist or psychologist has ever mentioned it to me. Has anyone here ever had it done? And if so, what did they find, and how did they remedy it? My daughter does shy away from social interactions and avoids talking to us when the tv is on in the room. She's not much of a talker, period.
