K3 Main Radio plays in Left External Speaker Only

Bud Governale, W3LL
How can I get the main receiver to play from both L & R external computer speakers?
The main receiver plays in only the left external computer speakers.

Using firmware 3.11.
K3 audio output is connected to the soundcard input. Soundcard output feeds both the computer and auxiliary speaker
pairs.
Computer plays stereo channels properly in both L & R external speakers.
When Sub receiver is turned on it's audio plays in the right speakers and the main receiver plays in the left speakers.
Headphones which are plugged in rear panel play properly with main in both ears
and when sub is turned on it plays in the right ear with the main receiver heard in the left ear.
Setting Config: SPKRS to 1 or 2 makes no difference.
What have I set up wrong?

Assuming that you are using LINE OUT, it puts the Main receiver on the
left channel and the Sub receiver on the right channel, independent of
any other settings.

This is to allow computer software to do digital modes, for example, on
each receiver. The assumption is that if you are feeding the LINE OUT to
a computer, there is software for the computer that can do mixing,
decoding, or whatever it is that you want to do.

If you want the LINE OUT to mimic the PHONES jack, you need to set LINE
=PHONES.  But if you do this, the AF GAIN control will affect the level
from LINE OUT, too.
