good thread.
I had the same problem getting it to work until I just backed the mics up some. I have never heard of people not panning 100%, I'm really not sure if it will work or not. Generally pan 100% and then control the width of the M/S recording with the volume of the Side mic tracks. Try it, switch it to mono and see if it cancels but I'm not sure if it will give any kind of bonus though...who knows.
