I am currently experiencing an issue with my Android STB device when I attempt to play a WebRTC stream with stereo audio (two audio channels). The main issue is that the device always downmixes the Left/Right channels to mono, regardless of the different tests and actions I've taken.
The WebRTC stream is received from Red5 Stream Manager servers, and I'm using the org.webrtc:google-webrtc:1.0.32006 library.
Here's a summary of the actions I've undertaken and the corresponding findings:
I tested the source audio on both the PC Chrome browser and Android Chrome browser on the STB. The audio played correctly in stereo on both, confirming that the source audio is functioning properly.
To confirm that the audio stream arrives in stereo, I implemented additional logging. The analysis confirmed that the audio stream does indeed arrive with two channels:
Stats ID: RTCCodec_audio_Outbound_111
Stats Type: codec
payloadType: 111
mimeType: audio/opus
clockRate: 48000
channels: 2
sdpFmtpLine:
maxaveragebitrate=128000;maxplaybackrate=48000;minptime=10;sprop-stereo=1;stereo=1;useinbandfec=1
--------------------------------------------------
I tried various audio-related implementations, but the audio output continued to play in mono, so decided to stick with javaAudioDeviceModule
I also attempted SDP munging manipulation and performed component updates, but neither action resolved the issue.
I made adjustments to audio parameters within the app, but the desired stereo output remained elusive:
JavaAudioDeviceModule javaAudioDeviceModule = JavaAudioDeviceModule.builder(context) .setSamplesReadyCallback(null) .setUseHardwareAcousticEchoCanceler(false) .setUseHardwareNoiseSuppressor(false) .setAudioRecordErrorCallback(null) .setAudioTrackErrorCallback(null) .setUseStereoInput(true) .setUseStereoOutput(true) .createAudioDeviceModule();
- The issue persists across various devices, including the Amino Amigo, Amino H-200, and an XIAOMI Android cell phone.

Can anyone help me understand why the device continues to downmix the stereo audio to mono, and how I might fix this issue? Any guidance or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!
