In particular, assuming you have a stereo disc (2 channel output),

would play channel 1

I am not familiar with Windows CD burning software, but there should
be an option for you to Open an ISO file. Sometimes it is called Open
a disc Image, or something similar. What you have done is, instead of
burning the iso as a raw data, making a CD of the iso.
You want to think of the iso as a
