Hmm. Fair enough.  Sometimes we support both types of channels
and leave it to userspace, but in many cases that makes little sense
- particularly if like I think is going on here, we aren't combining channels
that can be separately read but rather the negative pin is simply unused
when we are in single channel mode... (did I understand that right?)
