Opus is supposed to always support stereo, but downgrade to mono if necessary. Initially the draft stated that the codec was suppodes to not be offered as stereo (the /2) and then that changed. The testing I did back then showed that this way (without the /2) yielded better interoperability. With the proliferation of more Opus capable endpoints, maybe this doesn't hold true anymore.

Regardless, I thought I had tricked Blink into also accepting calls with the /2 in there :-S I'll take a look.
