Hi, Craig. I wouldn't worry about that: since audio is present only on one channel, it's to be expected that the file transfer to your host PC system reflect that.
Unless you care to wait, in hope that someone does know of a way to do what you want, my only suggestion is that once the file is available to SpeedEDIT, why not then just go into the Control Tree's Audio section (near the top), then select "MONO" and/or PAN the audio to the CENTER position.
