Hi All,

today my M1 MacBook Air decided to output audio on 1 channel only. I selected Spotify and my headphones only played through the right speaker.

I changed over to my iPad and played the same track from Spotify and all was good. i did various other checks and it seems my MacBook Air is a mono device at the moment.

I have removed the headphones from the bluetooth list and reinstalled but no difference.

Any suggestions to a remedy ?

thanks for reading

Hi Again,

Well silly me ? I brought up the sound section output and for some reason the balance slider was over to the far right. Put it central and it’s all good.

apologies for wasting your time
