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 haven’t checked, but I assume PulseEffects must have a module to convert stereo to mono.

        It’s an application that runs in the background and applies all sorts of filters and effects to your sound before it goes to the speakers. It’s actually quite cool, it can upgrade a crappy set of speakers/headphones to a mediocre one by applying the right adjustments.

          Oh i see, tried to install it here but it didn’t work, the app doesn’t start, Lots of people are recommending switching to pipewire, i think i may try that

            I see. I’ve never used it but it sounds like a good suggestion :)

              hey! So, i ended up trying to download this again and it worked perfectly, it was exactly what i needed, i think it didn’t work before cuz i had downloaded the wrong app, didn’t saw that the name was “easyeffects” and downloaded this “pulseeffects-legacy” one, which didn’t work probably cuz turned out i was using pipewire-pulse all along, so yeah, your suggestion was the one i needed soo, thank you!

                I’m glad it’s working! Yeah, right after posting that message I also noticed they forked it with a new name.
