'Set and detect mono audio programmatically in Android (Accessibility)
Android allows me to set combine audio channels into a single, mono channel. It's in accessibility settings, takes to much time (imo). So I want to set it programmatically (or through tasker, Idc) but I can't find it inside the Android accessibility API documentation. I'm not sure if it's there, somewhere else or nowhere. Can someone help me find a way to detect if the settings is available and how to set it.
Thanks in advance!

So far I have not been able to find anything that can do this (on my unrooted Phone) programmatically.
I ended up using AutoInput to scroll down after opening Accessibility Settings with the task of that same name, then tapping the toggle for Mono Audio. Keep in mind to wait ~350ms or more between the actions to wait for things to occur (less issues with AutoInput not working properly) if you don't have a very fast device.
Secure Settings might be able to modify this, but rooting my phone for that one thing is not worth it.

This app allows me to toggle it as an tile; but I think root is required. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=it.simonesestito.ntiles

Here is the command to set mono: settings put system master_mono 1
I decompiled that app David mentioned above, and found it.
