Dear All,

My issue is the following: I turn on my PC and sound is good for a while then left channel just turns off. If I unplug the jack and reconnect it comes back fine, and works for a while (several minutes usually).

I have tried several things and still I have the same issue. I have bought a sound card, reconnected through there yet still the same happens. I have changed speakers (so different cables) and again the same thing. I am wondering if it is some grounding problem as it does not seem hardware issue unless caused by the motherboard somehow.

Any help or direction would be much appreciated!

Regards,
Gergely

Hello Gergely!

To start with, I would try playing something else through your speakers (music from phone, tv, etc). If you use a source other than your PC and the issue still occurs you know there is something wrong with the speakers.
Let me know what you this test comes up with! I'll try to help some more when you know what the issue is!
