You should use the optical or 3.5mm input for audio, the USB audio (at least on my 800) is mono only.

Just fixed a similar problem in my Siberia 840.

To get Stereo audio via USB, you have to set it up in the base:

Options -> Sources -> Edit -> PC -> choose "USB IN" -> "USB OUT"

 

(Chatmix and Livemix are disable, since they work by receiving chat via USB and game via Analog/Optical.)
