In my opinion, that would be the player's task.

I'm afraid it won't work without at least partially decoding the audio
stream. On the transport side (MPEG TS/PS), the audio track appears as a
single entity, whether it's mono, stereo, two-channel or 17.4 Dolby
Surround++. Left and right channel may even be coded as the sum and
difference of the two channels (or similar) - and at least for MPEG
audio, that encoding may change with every audio frame.
