Make a .WAV file come out of the left speaker in Windows

I am writing a Python script that uses the win32all winsound package to


play a .wav file. I the sound come out of the left hand speaker, but


not the right hand speaker.



I've look at some Python sound libraries (PySonic, Audiere, pygame), as


well as any number of command line .wav file players. For differing


reasons, none of these were suitable. Two possiblities are:



(a) Convert the mono .WAV file to a stereo .WAV file that plays out of


the left speaker only, or



(b) Use the win32 ActiveX to adjust the Windows sound output balance


all the way to the left.



Can anybody offer suggestions as to where to start with these two? Does


anybody have other solutions to suggest?



Alan.
