Anyway I am converting to ogg with quality -2, I could cut my file sizes even further by switching to mono but that option is only available for mp3. Can I possibly override the ogg settings somehow? Thanks.
Yes. Try adding the custom OggEnc2 option "--downmix". From OggEnc2 manpage:

Code:
--downmix            Downmix stereo to mono. Only allowed on stereo
                     input.
