On the Playback tab, right mouse-click your headphones and select Test for a simple stereo test, You'll hear a sample sound in the left speaker first, followed by the right, if working correctly.

In Windows 10, right mouse-click the volume icon and then select Sounds, then switch to the Playback tab in the Sound dialog. The rest of the...
