Need help with audio spatialization

[er4zox]

Hey guys, why does the sound play from the right speaker only when the listener is "above" the sound.
The listener has the same X/Y pos as the sound.

Thanks for the help guys!

Code:

#include <SFML/System.hpp>
#include <SFML/Audio.hpp>
#include <SFML/Window.hpp>
#include <SFML/Graphics.hpp>
#include <iostream>

int main()
{
    sf::VideoMode VMode(sf::VideoMode::getDesktopMode());
    sf::RenderWindow window(VMode, "Sound Panning Test",sf::Style::Fullscreen);  

   sf::SoundBuffer sb_Sound;
   sf::Sound snd_Sound;

   sb_Sound.loadFromFile("SFMLSoundTestMono2.wav");
   snd_Sound.setBuffer(sb_Sound);
   snd_Sound.setPosition(VMode.width/2,VMode.height/2,0);
   snd_Sound.setRelativeToListener(true);
   snd_Sound.setMinDistance(50.f);

   float listenerDepth=50.f;
sf::Listener::setPosition(VMode.width/2,VMode.height/2,listenerDepth);
   sf::Listener::setDirection(0.f, 0.f,-listenerDepth);  

   snd_Sound.setLoop(true);
    snd_Sound.play();  

    while (window.isOpen())
    {
        sf::Event event;
        while (window.pollEvent(event))
        {
            if (event.type == sf::Event::Closed)
                window.close();      
        }
        window.clear();
        window.display();
    }

    return 0;
}

The listener has the same X/Y pos as the sound.

Nop, because you explicitly set the sound position to be relative to the listener instead of being absolute (snd_Sound.setRelativeToListener(true)). I don't think you need to be in relative mode.

And don't forget that by default, the listener's up vector is (0, 1, 0), so it's the XZ plane that controls the spatialization output.
