The man page indicates that ( and ) shift the balance left and right in
the user interface.  Perhaps you can send them to mplayer from your app
to accomplish what you want?  The trouble would be setting both
channels after you have adjusted to only left or right.  You would have
to know how many adjustments span the range so you could send half
that many to have both channels again. 

( and )
Adjust audio balance in favor of left/right channel.
