[VIA VT1828S] Only getting mono sound with 10.10
Some more information: Headphone output provides proper stereo audio

All relevant mixer elements are at the same volume for both channels. I
have to ask the obvious... Have you played with the volume controls,
either in the sound preferences in the top panel, or via alsalmixer in a
terminal? When doing so, has the left speaker returned?
Do you remember what
