Audio is recorded in mono #132

I noticed my clips' audio is in mono, so I looked in the config for the appropiate setting to use stereo (because I'm recording the system audio, which is in stereo) and couldn't find anything to change the amount of channels. Then I looked around in the code and it seems it's hardcoded to record in mono. Can we get a setting in the config file to be able to change it? Maybe an 'auto' option would be cool so that it uses stereo if the source also is.

The reason this isn't implemented yet is (if I recall correctly), pulse records multi-channel audio in a different way then how AAC accepts it and I didn't want to go to the effort of converting it properly. But may be something to do in the future.
