Recently I've been having a recurring audio issue in which right channel refuses to work when using headphones.
I've tested the headphones with other devices and the right channel works perfectly well. This lead me to believe the issue was with my laptop's settings however after ensuring left/right was balanced and testing sound with and without loudness correction I came to the conclusion it was an issue with my headphone jack so I bought a USB sound card. However when I run sound through the USB sound card I'm having the same issue, the right channel is not working correctly.
At best the sound in the right channel is very muted and faint, at worst it is completely silent.
The kicker is this problem only occurs with headphones. I tested the left and right channel with the laptops inbuilt speakers and each worked perfectly well.
I refuse to believe both headphone jacks and a brand new (literally arriving less than an hour ago) USB sound card have all fallen prey to the same issue simultaneously.
Any help would be truly appreciated. Any questions I can answer I will.
Thanks.
