I'm a bit surprised noone knows of a way to specify just one channel of a given output device, i.e., just the LEFT channel or the RIGHT channel of the main PCM output device. The asoundrc syntax documentation is extremely lightweight in this regard. The closest thing I've seen is an example showing how to bind two stereo output devices into a single 4-channel output device using "bindings" directives. I'd appreciate any pointers.
