IIRC:
If it was an analog cable system in which the stereo signal was modulated in stereo or simply translated in frequency at the head end, then stereo could get through to the RF input of a stereo analog TV. But if the audio was some how decoded and remodulated from baseband in the cable box, it typically was mono even if the original source was stereo.
