I hope it’s fine to ask this here, I’m using endeavor os with KDE and got some little speakers for my pc, they however only seem to play sound from the “front left” channel, is there a way to make pulse audio send all audio on it? Like, mono mode? I couldn’t find anything that does that…

Edit: Found a solution! Like i said before in a comment on this post turned out i was running pipewire-pulse, so i could use pipewire solutions! tried easyeffects and it perfectly fitted my needs, thanks for all the responses everyone!

    I play osu! So latency is something I’d want as small as possible

    Oh, i didn’t thought about that, won’t any solution have some sort of latency? Oh well, let’s see, i always play it with headphones so I’d Like to go with with a disablable method or something of that sort tho

      Hmmm have you considered a hardware solution? If you’re using wired headphones you can get a few adapters to play the left channel in both ears.

      Edit: wait that’s the opposite, you can get adapters to (electrically incorrectly) connect both outputs to one side, or better yet get a tiny mixer that can do it correctly like this: https://a.co/d/9guRG3A you’ll need a stereo splitter cable to get left and right outputs into separate channels, and maybe an adapter for the output

        sadly buying things would not be viable as i could just buy better speakers if i was going to spend more money anyway, but thanks for the suggestion!

          I see, is this a broken speaker situation? Maybe time to crack them open and do some fixing? Do you own a soldering iron?
