S7 camera audio playback in right earbud only

[jaffasma]

Hi, I have quite a specific issue.

On my samsung galaxy s7, I've noticed that when I record videos then watch them back while wearing headphones, all the recorded audio can only be heard through the right earbud. This only happens with videos I record using the default camera app and is not an issue with my headphones because when I use snapchat to record videos, I can hear the audio from both earbuds. I do not have this problem when using the voice recorder, when listening to music or when watching YouTube videos, it literally only happens when I record videos using the camera.

If anyone has any idea how to fix this it would be a huge help, thanks.

Hey, thanks for replying
I've actually resolved the issue now, it turned out that the left mic opening was clogged up with dirt, I cleaned it out using a pin.
