The (head locked) stereo track  is for non diagetic content. Usually music
but also VO and 'in the head' fx. Facebook has these extra tracks as well,
added to 2nd order. I would personally prefer them dedicated to increase
the order. Unfortunately alot of directors don't get it, and don't always
like music part of the scene. Plus it's unlikely they get music in stems,
to lock to the scene.
