Mini CQ10-450CA mono sound (right speaker only)

Question

Hello,
The right internal speaker on my new Mini CQ10-450CA seems to be working for both left and right ones since when I test speakers in "Playback Devices / Speakers and Headphones" only the right one produces sounds no matter which speaker I choose left or right.
With external headphones, the stereo is working just fine.
I have Windows 7 Starter and all the software up to date including BIOS.
Can someone let me know if this problem looks to be a hardware issue so the replacement is the only way to fix it?
Thank you.

Chinese cannot protect you from this yang disaster, and when I speak it, it never gets out.
Anyway, story to date.
The machine was misrepresented when it was sold, and despite 3 weeks of service visits with claims to have been repaired , and the "LEFT SPEAKER REPLACED" it became apparent, ONLY upon having the case opened (prior to being destroyed by the tech) that irregardles of all and any published spec, and the tecnhicians own knowledge of the machine, that there exists no left hand speaker for there to have ever had been repaired OR replaced.
These specs were edited online on one of two ocurrrences on HPS website that states categorically that they have STEREO SPEAKERS, within hours of an escalation one day. However these are still the specs on the HP Shopping site, and they are clearly viewable.
 |When it became apprent after several weeks that, (WELL WITHIN THEIR OWN cOMPANY repair AND replacement policy)
that we were dealing with some sort of damaged neanderthal or gorilla, a replacement (3rd offer) was agreed upon and agreed to with the return and scknowledgement of a legall binding document. At this point I had a verbal, and written legally binding agreement, (which she offered as an alternative to keep the case out of small claims court), or as I had alluded to earlier (during the day where the published specs were edited within hours) to conclude this escalated case.
 I waited for my new laptop.
I waited longer.
After several more days I calle dback and was then told it was not being approved , and that the replacement they offered now was a machine with none of the funtionality of this one (whereas the policy was to replace it with one thsat has all of the functionality, even if requiring a better unit, that met the advertised specs). 
HEWLETT PACKARD renegged on this replacement AFTER having accepted the agreement, after further escalations at HP in California, and my having been told gain yesterday that NOW the agrred-upon replacment has approved.
They have renegged again.
As I understarnd it, my mother ( unsure as to why she feels to get involved in my absense) spoke to an Escalations Magager Supervisor today and was told that it is being .... in short... I don't know what it is being. Deliberely wasting my time and compounding my complaints by renegging on the original agreement (S).
As cost was a factor in todays delay (although it hasn't been to date, having cost HP  much more than the origninal post and concluding by them having left me with a further damaged machine than when it started) I suppose it has been left not having been addressed at all. The proverbial,  omnipresent SCRAPIE from "last years model".
I will suggest to you the following if you have this complaint about this CQ10 machine.
3) I will contact now all of the Wireless Carriers that sold this ,model during it's promotion and mention the misrepreented product to them. I will point out how this, as it was a misrepresented product at thier level too, NEGATES ALL OF THE CELLuLAR CONTRACTS for SERVICE that axccompanied this purchase on the simple strength that the product legally locked into owning for the duration of the cell contracts, isn't the one we got. (Didn't get what we were sold, or aed for, or promised as delivered).
4) Contact your individual cellualr carriers and mention this case to them. Tell them you would like the balance of your cellular contracts cancelled, and they should themelves contact Hewlitt-Packard.
5) Try a differnt colour Cover Up this season. It's Fall. Know your Autumns from your New, Clear, Winters.
Thus is this case so far. For ALL of this time,, a month, all of these visits, all of these misrepresented "repairs" the facts ramin this notebook is in WORSE condition than when it went for repair, and they are arguing about cost.
In short, one entire month of "Sit, stay, get angry. Stay angry. Progress nowhere."/ 
How much does a month of your time cost, America? Mine costs you a FORTUNE. An UNPRECEDENTED FORTUNE.
This womam at HP, this escalations manager, just worked on one case for one months and achieved LITERALLY nothing. aDRESSED literally nothing. Concluded LItERALLY NOTHING.
How much is THIS post going to COST YOU, Hewlett=Packard?
I suggest you procede with cellular data contract cancellations.
