I2S naturally contains both channels so there's something wrong in your setup.

Observe WS versus CK directly on the codec's pins.

Hi Jan,

Yes you are right, the fact that make me think that it is a software issue is that I checked the I2S bus with a logic analyser. WS is correctly balancing left right, CK is much faster as expected and the data is corresponding to the analog value -> right a nice sinus, left wierd semi periodical signal.

But what I don't understand, if we take the problem reversly, if I had to send two different signal on the two channels, how would I proceed? 

In 

HAL_I2S_Transmit_DMA(&hi2s2, (uint16_t*) sine_table, 512); I don't see any reference about the second channel, is it suposed to be in the sine_table? I tried to put [sin0, 0, sin1, 0, sin2, 0] as if the data where [L0, R0, L1, R1, ...] but then the right channel was not clean anymore.

I think I have not totally understood the concept...

Yes that's exactly how are they supposed to be.

but then the right channel was not clean anymore.

This is why I say something is wrong in your setup. Is the CODEC set properly for I2S/Philips? FMT pin?

CK is much faster

Is it exactly 16 x WS?

I would say yes to all your comments but I will dig into those directions next week (few days off). 

Thanks for the clarification!

Okay, I found the mistake, I was expecting my DMA to be 16bits as I programmed i2s so, and did not see that data bit was actually in word. I have been confused as this parameter is not in the main and forgot about it.
