The problem is that it is mono, not stereo. Try playing it in ffplay,
then try playing it with the patch..

I don't remember the exact line I used, but the following will recreate
the problem:

ffmpeg -i http://samples.mplayerhq.hu/DV-raw/voxnews.dv -ac 1 -acodec
mp2 mono-mp2.mp4

As a comparison, swapping -acodec for aac makes the output be correctly
detected as mono.

Not sure why Benjamin dropped the patch - there is a problem and the
patch fixes it.
