My audio plays through the right spreaker only.

My audio plays through the right spreaker only. Its the same when I connect my headsets. I tried reinstallind the driver and restart the system, but the problen continues. I'm using Pavilion dv6 7040tx with Windows 8 for the past 2 years and this is the first time this issue has accured. 

Hello orvillecota,
Welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience! To help you get the most out of the HP Forums I would like to direct your attention to the HP Forums Guide First Time Here? Learn How to Post and More.
I understand that you are only able to receive sound through the right speaker / headphone, and I would be happy to assist you! 
Since you have already uninstalled and re-installed the audio drivers for your notebook, I suggest using this document on when there is No Sound from Speakers (Windows 8). This resource should help re-establish the sound from both speakers on your computer.
If the issue persists, I also recommend running the Using Recovery Manager to Restore Software and Drivers (Windows 8). This should help re-install all of the hardware drivers and original software that came with your notebook. In addition,  please use the HP Support Assistant to update any new driver added to your system.
Please re-post with the results of your troubleshooting, and I look forward to your reply!
Regards

  • Why would the audio play through the headphones but not the speakers?

    I am working on an app that has embedded video. The audio works fine through my speakers and headphones as it does for some of my coworkers, but I also have other coworkers who get audio through the headphones but not the speakers. It's a variety of devices, 4, 4S, and 5. Any thoughts?

    If you are working on developing an app perhaps you should try the developers forum.

  • My music only plays through the right earbud

    I know its not the headphones because they work just fine with my laptop. I got my phone in June and it has worked great until I updated it to the ios6 and then this happened. Can someone tell me what is wrong with my phone and how to fix it please and thank you.

    - Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so. There is a little switch in the headphone jack that disconnects the speaker when the headphone jack is inserted.
    Try the following to rule out a software problem
    - Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Seems you have a bad headphone jack.
    Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
    If not under warranty Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for this price. They do not fix yours.

  • IPod Classic 80GB will only play music through the right earphone

    Hi everybody
    a few days ago my ipod stopped playing music through both earphones and will now only play through the right one. it isn't the headphones because i brought a new set and used another set that i know work through both earphones but neither will work through both earphones on my ipod. This problem is really annoying me. I tried resetting it but nothing. I didn't do anything to it, i just didn't use it for a few days. and i really want to avoid restoring it to factory settings because it is almost full and only a handful of my songs are on my computer. any solutions?

    Yeah I now know that after finding it in another thread. Thanks anyway. I live in Australia so I just gotta find someone who will repair it because I don't wanna risk ruining it by trying to do it myself. I asked an electronics place that replaces the batteries but they wouldn't do it. So if I can't find anybody to fix it, I'll probably buy a new one (cos I need one anyway) and try to fix the old one. The problem with finding someone to fix it is that I live in a country town and about 2-3 hours from Sydney and we don't have much here.

  • My ipod audio only coming through the right headphone whats wrong?, My ipod audio only coming through the right headphone whats wrong?

    Ive tried with mulitple headphones but my audio on my ipod is only coming through the right headphone. Whats wrong with my ipod? WIll I need to purchase another one?

    I don't know if this is a common issue: I bought an iphone from someone and notice that only the plug design of the stereo headphone that comes with it fits in its receptacle. I tried others that are generally for the same size but they can't go deep enough in the receptacle thus can't get any audio. One thing I noticed is that this iphone's receptacle is deeper in the device than usual, so any other plugs other than the one provided can't fit. I can't use my external speakers with it!!! I fail to understand this. All all iphones like this or is it a defect particular to mine? After all, my ipod touch doesn't have this issue! If anybody knows, please tell me.

  • I made a project with multiple tracks and had it all panned and mixed.  Now it's only playing in the right speaker.  Not even regestering a left side in the master volume?  What happened, how can I get both sides back?

    I made a project with multiple tracks and had it all panned and mixed.  Now it's only playing in the right speaker.  Not even regestering a left side in the master volume?  What happened, how can I get both sides back?

    Thank you for that info.
    For video, the codec is MPEG-4 Video (XVID) and for audio it says MPEG Audio Layer 1/2/3 (mpga).
    There are two issues with that file:
    The first is the Xvid CODEC (not meant for editing), and then the MPEG Audio/MPGA. I would convert that file, to something that is more editable.
    Good luck,

  • My ipod wont play music solely through the ear phones it will only play through the main speaker and quietly through earphones. Is this fixable??

    My ipod wont play music solely through ear phones it will only play through the main speaker and the earphones together. Is this able to be fixed??

    I am also experiencing some problems with the new software version, I bought the Belkin TuneBase for my car 25 days ago it had been working fine since I upgraded my Ipod 2 days ago, you know that sometimes if you don't get good reception you can change to a diferent preseted station on this Belkin Transmitter but since this Ipod upgrade I can't change to a diferent station and also i can't disconect it like before because before it said you were ok to disconect and I'm afraid to return because perhaps afterall is a software problem.

  • I make videos using my go pro hd camera, but when i export it only half of my 3 min video shows up with the audio playing in the background, plus when i try to select the quality in the export options it won't let me select 720p or 1080p?????? help!!!

    What you could do now is break up your video into smaller parts and render them out, then assemble them again as a whole.
    I know this is not the best fix, but it might work.
    You can duplicate an edit in the main screen, then delete the last bits and export,
    do the same for the other half.
    Then import the two bits (or more if you need) in a new edit.
    Out of curiosity, can you post what format the video is in?
    Copy a video straight from the camera to your computer.
    Open it in Quicktime player, and with out playing type Apple + i
    or Control + i for PCs
    It should tell you lots of info about the video, and might help us to see what is wrong.
    This is what it looks like:

  • Does the EQ setting affect only audio played from the Music app?

    Does the EQ setting in Settings -> Music affect only audio played from the Music app or does it also affect any other audio? Specifically, I'd like to know if the setting is applied to audio podcasts that are played from Downcast. Thanks!
    --VV

    They will only affect the Music app.

  • Why is my macbook playing the audio output through the microphone?

    I have an older Macbook Pro. When I call someone on Skype, Google Hangouts, etc., they are able to hear all the audio that my computer is playing through the headphones. E.g. if I watch a video while Skyping someone, they can hear all the audio from that video through their own headphones. This applies to any sounds my computer makes (including the volume change sound, other systems sounds, etc.).
    I originally thought it might be some sort of line interference from poor quality headphones, but tests with different headphones rule that out. Please, any thoughts on what might be causing this?
