It might be a matter semantics.  If by "Stereo" you mean the sound is
only in a single speaker (left or right as appropriate to the file) and
the other speaker is silent and by "Mono" you mean that both speakers
emit the same sound, then this is as expected.  Otherwise I'm confused.

Output should conform to the following (assuming the audio file isn't a
stereo audio with the two channels having identical samples):

                        w == Soft       w == S.Off
                        ---------       ----------
        J == on         L == R          L != R
        J == off        L != R          L != R

It is only in the one case of both the SoftMixer and mono-mixing turned
on that the sound from both input channels will be averaged and emitted
on both output channels.

So how does what you're hearing differ from this?
