[geek] Mixing mplayer audio output to mono
I've had a lot of problems listening to stuff with apparently screwed up (horribly imbalanced) stereo lately. A useful solution I just found is the mplayer argument "-channels 1". It causes mplayer to ask the audio decoder to give it 1 audio channel. I still wish pulseaudio had a simple built in mix-to-mono function.

Does PulseAudio use libao? Might there be something you can add to libao.conf? I'm not too up on the state of Linux sound as of late, since recently, most stuff Just Works, amazingly enough. :-)
