OpenAL sound effects not working .. Please Help

Question

Hi
I ported OpenAL to our platform and able to play the wav files.
I wrote a sample openal application and try to produce some sound effects.
Play back of audio is working but sound effects are not working.
I am using jungle.wav which is mono channel sound wave file as input
# The Code snippet used is mentioned below.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> >>>>>>>>>>>>>
#define NUM 2
alutInit(0,0) ;
alGetError();
SourcesPos[0] = SourcesPos[1] = SourcesPos[2] = 0.0f;
ListenerPos[0] = ListenerPos[1] = ListenerPos[2] = 0.0f;
ListenerOri[0] = 0.0f;
ListenerOri[1] = 0.0f;
ListenerOri[2] = -1.0f;
ListenerOri[3] = 0.0f;
ListenerOri[4] = 1.0f;
ListenerOri[5] = 0.0f;
alListenerfv(AL_POSITION, ListenerPos);
alListenerfv(AL_ORIENTATION, ListenerOri);
alGenBuffers(NUM, Buffers);
Buffer[0]= alutCreateBufferFromFile("/Res/jungle.wav");
err = alutGetError();
alGenSources(NUm, Sources);
alSourcei (Sources[0], AL_BUFFER, Buffers[0] );
alSourcef (Sources[0], AL_REFERENCE_DISTANCE, 25*2);
alSourcefv(Sources[0], AL_POSITION, SourcesPos);
SourcesPos[0] = 200;
SourcesPos[1] = 200;
SourcesPos[2] = 25;
alSourcefv(Sources[source], AL_POSITION, SourcesPos);
alSourcePlay(Sources[source]);

I am expecting the sound to be played in the right headphone/speaker.
But the sound is played in both the headphones.
I used wave device and generated the output.wav file.
In that file also the sound is played in both the headphones.
I used the following settings for configuring OpenAL alsoft.conf.
Someone please help me the error in the above code.
Does OpenAL able to generate the right sound or left sound effect depending on the co ordinates
format = AL_FORMAT_STEREO16
cf_level = 0
frequency = 44100
refresh = 4096
sources = 256
stereodup = false
drivers = osp // Our platform
excludefx =
layout_STEREO = fl=-90, fr=90
layout_QUAD = # Sets the speaker layout when using quadriphonic output.
# Available speakers are back-left(bl), front-left(fl),
# front-right(fr), and back-right(br).
# The default is:
bl=-135, fl=-45, fr=45, br=135
layout_51CHN = bl=-110, fl=-30, fc=0, fr=30, br=110
layout_61CHN = sl=-90, fl=-30, fc=0, fr=30, sr=90, bc=180
layout_71CHN = bl=-150, sl=-90, fl=-30, fc=0, fr=30, sr=90 br=150
device = default
periods = 0
capture = default
mmap = true
[wave] # Wave File Writer stuff
file = # Sets the filename of the wave file to write to. An empty name
# Default is empty
volume = 100
Thanks
