Mono Audio Widget?

Mono audio is one of the "Accessibility" features that you can enable through the system settings. It allows you to listen through only one earphone.
The widget is just a quick way to enable it.

I have headphones in right now and it's not doing anything when I toggle the widget.
I put the widget on my home screen and plugged my headphones in test it out. The difference was slight, at least with the song I was listening to, but it was there.
Mono puts out a single signal. You're hearing the exact same thing through both sides of your headphones. Therefore, it doesn't matter if you have both in or only one, you'd be hearing the same thing. However, stereo puts out two independent signals. You are not hearing the same thing through both sides. It makes the sound "richer".
As I've been writing this, another song came on that had a significant orchestral background. I flipped the mono off and on with the widget, and the different was quite pronounced, so at least on my phone, with the headphones that came with the phone, it's working.

Ah I see. I thought you were saying that it would make it play out of one earphone. I get it now. Thanks.
