Hello,

My headphones only play out of their left side. I've updated and reinstalled the Realtek Audio Driver. Didn't work. Using Windows 10. The headphones work fine on other devices.

I think the problem is that "Headphones" won't show up under my playback devices. But I don't know how to fix that.

The wiring to the left side must be sectioned (broke)

First, the left side is the the side that works so that side can't be broken. Second, the headphones work fine on other devices.

I misread, sorry. You should have told me that the headphones work fine on other devices.
