You should be able to write:

ffmpeg -f dshow -i blablabla -af pan=stereo:c1=c1 ...

Unfortunately, the -af option and corresponding infrastructure is not yet
implemented in the ffmpeg command-line tool.

On the other hand, you should be able to write:

ffmpeg -f lavfi -i 'movie=video=blabla:f=dshow [out] ;
  amovie=audio=blabla:f=dshow, af=pan=stereo:c1=c1" ...

or something like that. Unfortunately, you will have two demuxers instead of
one, and I am not sure the rtbufsize option can be passed.

The situation may improve progressively though.
