[Openal] distance but not direction preserved

Hi,
I recently made a quick demo to test an audio file as it travels
around a listener. As the sound moves farther away, it indeed becomes
quieter. However, the direction that it moves is indiscernible. For
example, if I move left, right, forward, up, down, diagnal, or
whatever, it all sounds the same out of both my stereo speakers and my
headphones.
I ran the demo PlayMultiChannelWin32.exe and the speaker sounded the
same each time she said something (regardless of right, left, or
center), although it was a bit quieter when she was speaking in the
"back" and a bit louder with "center".
I have hardware acceleration, but its just on an on-board card. Any
suggestions?
Thanks,
Tim
