Questions about Alisa's single and dual microphones

During the test, I found that during the wake-up and dialogue of ALEXA, only the right microphone works, and the left microphone does not affect the function even if I short-circuit it. Why is this? Isn't it a dual microphone? I remember using the early SDK, shorting any microphone, ALEXA can work;
For upload path, as per specification, data is down-channeled and down sampled to 16K sampling rate. Hence, another channel simply is irrelevant and data for that is ignored.
According to the specifications provided by your company, the function is a dual microphone function, and I remember that when testing in February last year, shielding any one microphone can work, can you tell us why? Did we test wrong before?
