Form 4868

Form 4868 is listing my firm's mailing address, not the client's mailing address.  Is this happening to anyone else?

Looks like it defaults to the firm address. There is an override on the 4868 screen that says:

Reply: 1=firm address, 2 = client address [override], placing a 2 on that field will give you what you're looking for.

Somewhere it is set to do that. It is fine.

The more I know the more I don’t know.

I don't think it's fine. I'm sending Form 4868 to the client. The extension voucher lists the client's name and SSN, but has my firm's address under part 1 (identification). This is happening on all 1040's. Seems pretty clear it's a computer programming error on the part of PTO.
