Wondering if anyone else has experienced an inexplicable loss of one of
their audio channels on a late-model iBook? It has only happened a few
times, but strange. I plug in headphones or speakers and only get sound
out of one side, unplug them and there's nothing coming from the
corresponding internal speaker. I haven't noticed whether it's
consistently the L or R. A reboot has audio back to normal, but it's a
bit of a hassel.

cheers!

Did you check the balance slider when it happens? I've seen reports of the
slider moving to one side.

That's happened to me once already on my 2005 ibook G4. Not since
though, knock on wood.
