[Openal] Using stereo sounds

Hey, I've recently been experimenting with OpenAL hoping to use it in a final project game I've been working on, and I came across a small problem.  Sound files that are stereo will not respond correctly when applying orientation and position.  All mono files work perfectly, and I suppose this is because the stereo files have multiple channels and work against what OpenAL is trying to do with them, but it seems as though this limitation should not be there. Should I write a converter myself so that any sound files that are used are converted to mono, or is there a special way of loading or playing stereo WAVEs?  Thanks for the help.
