This got to work automagically. Just like it does in xawtv or other V4L
TV apps.

Besides that, your advice would need a bit more work - to mix the
particular channel from AUX (or line in) to both channels. Or perhaps
switching the output to mono would work. Not sure what would happen when
everything is passed via SPDIF (haven't got that far yet).
