Sound from front right speaker not working, playing out of le

I have a Soundblaster X-Fi Fatalty and it'ss a little under year old with all current drivers. The front right speaker plays no sound but the front left speaker plays what is supposed to come out of the front right. I have it set on the 5. surround sound but it doesn?t work on any other settings. A week ago everything was working fine I have not installed anything new since then. I'm not sure if this is a hardware problem or something set wrong on my computer. Does anyone have a solution or know what may be causing this? Also I checked the speakers, they work fine.Message Edited by Nowise0 on 0-04-2006 03:52 PM

I ghave this same problem with an XFi Elite pro card and a 5. speaker system. To get sound coming out all 5 correct speakers and subwoofer i have to select 7. speaker set up then 5., then 6. and finally 5. again then it works fine - I have to do the selection in THX from game consule mode to get it to work.

No sound from front right/left speakers in 5.1 setting SB Audigy 2 ZS

Dimension 550/E50
XP Media Center 2005
All current Windows Updates (SP3 & all MCE updates)
5. surround sound was working fine until some software changes took place (however, I dont know which was directly related)
A) Intel Chipset update from A to 7.2.2.006, A3
1. It fixes issue with USB keyboard/mouse hang until reboot while installing.
2. It fixes yellow bang in USB controller in Device Manager on a system with USB keyboard/mouse while installing.
3. It fixes a bug where a 3rd party SMBus driver was being overwritten.
4. It fixes Installshield issue with silent mode.
5. It fixes issue in PCIUtility.sys during install on 64-bit OS.
6. It fixes untranslated language strings.
B) Some Microsoft AutoUpdates
didn't discover the loss of front speakers until several updates had run. Restored back to December 08 without any improvements.
After the chipset update, I de-installed all SB and Sigmatel drivers
Then Re-installed the SIGMATEL STAC 92XX C-Major HD Audio driver
and then re-ran the SB Installation CD
still, no front r/l sound
then, i ran the Creative AutoUpdate application and installed recommended updates.
still no sound front l/r --
i switched the rear l/r cable with front, so i know the speakers are fine.
what else can i do
how can i tell if the sound board is faulty

I used the Creative Diagnostic application's Speaker Test and after hitting Restore Defaults, the front right speaker is not as quiet, though still much quieter and muffled. Still no sound from the subwoofer.

Powerbook G4 Right Speaker Not Working

Hello, i just recently purchased a very gently used Powerbook G4 15 inch, 1.67 Ghz, 2GB Ram, 80GB HDD, OS X 10.4.11. the computer performs phenomenally and overall feels like a brand new computer! however, the right speaker is not working. i understand this is the model with three speakers, left - middle (more proximal to the left speaker) - and right. when i try to slide the volume slider to the left the left most speaker makes sound, when i slide the volume slider to the right, the middle speaker only makes sound. im wondering if the powerbook is mistaking the middle speaker as the right speaker because it only shows two channels - 1 for left and 2 for right - but the "2" is only playing though the middle speaker. i hope theres an easy fix, something thats not hardware related. if it cant be easily fixed then it doesnt hurt me too much because the computer was only 50$

Attach headphones or exteranl speakers. Any sound probelms with those?
I'd start with resetting the NVRAM per this article:
How to Reset NVRAM on your Mac - Apple Support
Be aware that the note at the bottom of the page referring to an SMC reset only applies to Intel Macs, not PowerBooks.
You should also try a PMU reset:
http://www.ehow.com/how_6787488_reset-pmu-g4-powerbook.html
I looked at some repair guides for 15-inch, 1.67 ghz powerbooks and don't see a reference to more than two speakers, even on the large 17-inch versions.

No sound from front centre speaker and sub

I have an Audigy 2 with Creative Inspire 6700 speakers. I have a problem where there is no sound from either the front center speaker or the sub. If I test it with Speaker Setup in Control Panel there is no sound on those two speakers.
Has anyone got any suggestions please?

I have this issue aswell - but do not exspect any help, support from this forum.
This company is crap, I hate them.. They will NEVER be getting a penny from me. The only reason I come here is b/c? I paid a lot of money for my card, and I'm hoping one day for a fix...

I AM GETTING NO SOUND FROM MY RIGHT SPEAKER AND ALL VOLUME LEVELS ARE TURNED UP

I HAVE CHECKED ALL VOLUME CONTROL SETTINGS AND BOTH RIGHT AND LEFT SPEAKERS ARE BALANCED AND TURNED ON 100% BUT WHEN I TEST THEM, I ONLY GET AUDIO OUTPUT WITH THE LEFT SPEAKER, AND NOTHING FROM MY RIGHT. I HAVE AN HP PAVILLION G7 RUNNING WINDOWS 7.

I have tried all the above and nothing seems to work. Any other suggestions?

Tablet Z Right speaker not working

I have a Sony "Tablet Z" SGP 311, after I had the screen replaced it came back with one of the speakers not working, (it is possible that the fault started at the same time as the screen got broken). I took it back to the same company, they checked the speakers & the speaker ribbon cable, both of which are not faulty, unfortunately they don't have the ability to check beyond what they have checked already, what would be the most probable cause of my fault.The system was running Android 4.4 when the fault was first noticed, but is now running 5.01

Hi @don320 I suggest you to first run a backup of the device information like this: http://talk.sonymobile.com/t5/FAQ/Backup-amp-Transfer/m-p/407253#U407253 Then try performing a system repair using PC Companion: http://support.sonymobile.com/global-en/xperiatabletz/tools/pc-companion/ I hope can be useful. I'm at disposal for any question. Best Regards,

Sound from 915/G Neo2 not working right

I recently built a new computer using a 915/G Neo2 mother board, and couldn't get it to make any sounds through my Boston Acoustics Digital BA735 speakers, or my front headphone jack. After messing around with possible hardware problems (is it plugged in the right port, etc.) I uninstalled the C-Media driver that came with the board, downloaded the Creative Sound Blaster 7.1 channel HD audio driver, and installed it instead. I then plugged the speakers into the coax spidf out port. I now get sound, but every time I start a sound, any sound be it system sounds, Mp3s, video, whatever, it makes a” thumping" noise like the power has been turned on to the speakers suddenly. When the sound is finished, the thumping noise happens again. My speakers don't make the normal hissing sound between sounds either. This doesn’t happen to my front headphone jack, or my rear 1/8th in speaker jack. They work fine. Windows says everything is installed and working properly. Please dose anyone have any ideas? I am stumped.

Right speaker not working - MacBook Pro

Help. My right built-in speaker just stopped working. I ran the trouble shoot in Settings to ensure it was all set up correctly and it is. Any advice?

Try a PRAM reset:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1379
Is the right channel silent using ear phones? You may have a faulty speaker or there is a software problem. If the PRAM fails, the Apple store genius bar is the place to have the specific problem defined, and hopefully corrected.
Ciao.

Front Right Speaker Sometimes not Making a Sound, P5800

Hi,
I have the Creative Inspire P5800 Speakers. Every so often, the sound that my front right speaker makes is very faint. It happens all of a sudden, the only way to fix it is to calibrate my speakers from my Sound Card settings a couple of times before it returns to normal and then it does the same thing again later. My Sound Card is Creative Audigy 2 ZS. This has only started happening when I had to disconnect my cables from the back of my computer as I had to install a new hard drive and install Windows XP and drivers again. My cables are properly connected as I did a Speaker Channel Test and the calibrator reports no miswired cables. Does anyone know how I can fix this?
Thanks in advance.

Since updating to 706 the sound on my ipad2 is not working right. On videos or music. There is constant distortion and what sounds like interference. Any ideas?

Has the unit EVER been jailbroke?
If "No," first try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. It could take well over an hour! Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow the on-screen directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here. You WILL lose all of your data (game scores, etc,) but, for the most part, you can redownload apps and music without being charged again. Also, if you have IOS-7, read this.

Audio out jack only plays sound in the right speaker.

Whenever I plug anything (speakers, earphones, etc.) into the Audio Output jack, it only plays sound through the right speaker/earphone. The left speaker/earphone hardly has any sound at all.
How should I go about fixing this problem?
It ***** and it's annoying. At first, I thought it was just my earphones but they work perfectly fine with my iPod and other devices.

HI Chris,
my daughter has the ipod touch 4th generation and it started only having sound come out of the right speakers in both of my vehicles. I read also it could be a broken socket causing it. Do you know about this? How does one break a socket and how would I repair that? The person on y*hoo answers said to either send it to apple refurbished unit or replace it. Replace it? Really? It's a 64 GB ipod touch that I won at work with reward points which is the only reason I could afford it. Looking for better solution like your's above but I'm worried I will have to send it in. I was looking on my iphone 4 and noticed the volume balance was under Settings>General>Accessibility so I guess it's different on an ipod touch?

Only sound from my right internal speaker on my new hp stream X360 PC 11

Were you able to contact Apple, about this issue, while under warranty?
If there is a hardware cause of the problem or other, they may fix it or
at least diagnose the underlying cause...
Your other post was changed into a new thread on its own, here:

When posting in an old topic, your issue may not relate to the original
cause of the problem someone had a year ago with different hardware
