I believe what's most important for symmetry is the part of the room that's
in front of you. Any differences on the sides will affect the imaging since
the reflections from there are close in time to the source. What happens
behind you comes later and has less effect.

Your desk looks awfully deep. There will be reflections off that which could
be a problem.
