  1. Headphone audio from one side only, not mono


    So, I do not know what is the problem, my computer is completely up to date, with every driver also updated. I checked if the sound was on zero in the levels tab, i checked if it was in mono, i cleaned my headphone jack on the laptop, but sound is still only coming from one side. When i tried to play the sound on right side through the Sounds device tab, it playback error or something. I also plugged in my headphones to other devices, and it worked perfectly fine. Then i went ahead and tried other headphones on my laptop, but they also had a problem with right side not being played. I know the

  2. Headphones only outputting audio in mono

    Hello,

    I'd like to play Stereo audio when my headphones are plugged in to my 3.5mm audio port, but they are only outputting in Mono. Stereo works when using them through Bluetooth, but I often use them wired and would like them to play Stereo properly that way
    as well.

    System specifications:

    Windows 10 64 bit home

    3.5mm Audio jack

    Realtek Audio

    JBL live 650btnc-le headphones

    My audio drivers are all up to date.

    The "mono" audio option in Ease of Access is turned off.

    Turning audio enhancements on or off in the properties menu doesn't solve the problem.

    Restarting the computer doesn't solve the problem.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Mono audio loss

    I use mono to listen to music with one headphone.

    For some tracks, all or part of the audio is 180 degrees out of phase between the stereo channels, silencing it.

    Solution: Invert one channel then mix both channels, halve the amplitude of the result, then mix it with the original mono track.

    Is there a way to make that solution part of the mono function?

    Headphone audio from one side only, not mono

    Command for toggling mono audio

    There is an option in Settings app under Ease of Access > Audio that allows system-wide mono audio.

    I find the audio sounds better on mono audio when using telecoil neckloops, however I switch between the neckloop and headphones and find it annoying that I left the mono audio on when using headphones.

    Is there a command that I can create a shortcut to, and I can activate it using an automation task or manually?
