I meant, if you set the balance on a sample (say, 0 for left speaker),  
would it still play on both speakers? Or in other words, was all sound  
output mono or was it just stereo samples that were played as mono?
I would expect the former in all realistic cases since the latter is a  
bit daft, but I thought I'd ask. Anyway, I guess it doesn't matter now.

I think it's fine: it starts out loud on the left and then shifts to  
the right. It's a bit hard to tell if the output is exactly the same  
as in mplayer, since mplayer cuts off the last part and iTunes won't  
open it, but I suppose I can claim it works properly.
