For websites who have mono recorded (single channel) podcasts, audio in firefox will only play from left speaker instead of picking center channel.

If audio is downloaded and played on seprate dedicated player it defaults to center or if same site is played in IE also defaults to center.

Stereo recorded podcasts have no issue.

I assume that not a Flash player is used in this case, but that this is an issue with the (built-in) HTML5 media player and the audio tag is used.

Is that correct?

The Flash player should show the Flash context menu if you right-click the player area.
