Mono channels for one headphone

So I’d like to continue listening to masked tracks via headphones while working. Unfortunately my work involves me talking to people and I would rather not talk to them with both headphones in (one because it would appear rude and two because I’m slightly hard of hearing from years of being a musician). My phone has an accessibility feature which allows me to take stereo channels and mono them. I was thinking of doing this so I could listen with just one headphone in. Would this alter the masked track in any way that would make it less effective?
