Sound only coming from 1 ear

[Yusuf Demirel]

Hey guys, I've got this problem since yesterday and I can't fix it. If I plug my headset at the back of my pc, it works perfect. But if I plug it in the front, it only comes from the right side, same thing applies to other headphones, I tried several others, all of them work only with 1 ear. So I'm sure that my headphone isn't broken. Does anybody know a way to fix it?
I really appreciate if anybody could help me.

This might sound silly, but on some ports, if you pull out the headphone pin about halfway (or less) the sound becomes perfect. Just put it in and pull it out slowly and see if you find a difference. Weird, but I've seen it before.

If I pull it a bit back, I hear it from the left side, not from both of them, still very annoying 🙁

Try and find a sweet spot where both work, otherwise, you'll have to wait for a more knowledgeable person to answer I'm afraid.

i have the same problem. when i plug it in well, right ear works, if i ajust it, left ear works... but no sweet middle spot...for both. good thing to know that pluging in the back will save me from getting angry, because it is VERY annoying playing games with one good ear

Maybe opening the case to make sure that the cables are well placed? Audio cables are very sensitive at the placement point of view.
Check on both ends, motherboard and behind the front of the case.

Replugged the cable HD AUDIO cable on the motherboard, it worked. Thank you so much 😀

Check the audio settings, and look if it's set up to only play in the right ear, or left ear.
