No. After starting fluidsynth console application, and assuming the same 
instrument (i.e a piano) is set on channel 0 and channel 1. If you use a noteon 
command on channel 0 and channel 1 using the same velocity value you should 
hear that the note on both channels have the same level.

 

>It also plays two notes even though only one gets sent.

No. After execution of only one noteon command on channel 0, you should hear 
that only one note is played on this channel 0.

No. You need only to set a channel in monophonic only because you want this 
channel behave like a monophonic instrument. On fluidsynth initialization the 
default mode for all MIDI channels is polyphonic mode.

At fluidsynth initialization, the default value for pitch bend sensitivity is 
+/- 2 semitones. It is likely that for any 'mpe like implementation' one should 
need custom pitch bend sensitivity value for each relevant MIDI channels.
