What format are the problem files and where did they come from?

AE will auto-convert any mono file into stereo when you drop the audio file into a Timeline. Knowing this, you can convert the mono MP3 into a stereo WAV/AIFF in AE. So, drop the MP3 into the New Comp icon, in the Project Panel. Then render out the composition - ensure you choose WAV/AIFF (Windows/Mac) and import this file and use it instead of the mono version.
