Audio balance sometimes changes (sh.itjust.works)

Hey all! I think at one point I changed the balance of my audio output (an earbud was a little dead so I shifted the amount of sound coming out of the left and right to compensate). I’ve long since gotten a new pair of headphones but sometimes I connect them and the balance has reverted back! It drives me bananas (I’m the sort of person who must turn on the mono sound accessibility feature bc stereo effects make me dizzy) and I have no idea if it’s something I’m doing to trigger the behavior or if I’m stuck with it until this computer dies.

Anyone else experiencing this or have any ideas about how to fix it?

With the following terminal command you can reset the balance in case it gets shifted. Make sure your headphones are connected and selected as output device. osascript -e "set volume output volume (output volume of (get volume settings))"
