    I've got an odd sound problem on my PC (SUSE 9.1, KDE). The problem is that I
    only seem to get the right-hand sound channel through my speakers or
    headphones. It's not the hardware, because booting into Windows gives me full
    sound. The mixer settings show no balance skew.

    So, can anyone suggest why I might have this problem and how to fix it?
