Do the left and right speaker work independently or are they supposed to be working in conjunction? When I was messing with it last night it seemed as though some sounds could only be heard from the right and others only from the left.

well depending on what you were listening too... but most times they should work independently. The sound tracks are mixed so that you feel a sense of the aptmosphere, so if someone is talking to your right, you hear them on your right, just like you would in real life. If a bullet whizzes by your ear on the left, it comes soley from the left speaker.
In music it will depend on the mix, some things are mixed so that you hear certian things from one speaker or the other, drums and vocals are usually mix to come from both so the presentation is more directly in front of you as the speakers image.
