Do you use an audio jack or USB? If an audio jack, it is possible that the contacts are dirty and need cleaning. You can try a little electrical contact cleaner. But this should not affect the stereo/mono settings.

My audio used to work properly in stereo. All of sudden, it stopped
working in stereo. Depending on headphones,
- only 1 side has sound, or
- both sides have sound, but it's mono (ie. same sound on both side).

Anyone experienced this?
How long before the whole motherboard dies?
