libdcadec (and thus this new decoder) doesn't force stereo when downmix
coefficients are not embedded in the stream, leaving the work to the
resampler instead. Try the libdcadec wrapper and it will do the same.

It's an intended change in behavior compared to the old dca decoder, so
i guess it could documented.
