Speaker question

NZ0T
I have used two speakers with my K3 for several years.  Lately I have noticed that when the headphones are plugged in the left speaker stays on even though I have speakers set to off in the menu.  This has not happened before.  I use a 1/8 stereo plug in the rear speaker jack.  Everything works normally except for the left speaker staying on when it shouldn't.  I have 2 speakers set in the menu and am using firmware 5.38.

Ideas?

Bill,

My guess is that you have a problem with the headphone jack.  My guess
is that the contacts that say "headphones have been plugged" is working
for the right channel, but the same contact for the left channel is failing.

As I said, that is just a guess on my part - the folks at K3support may
have some other ideas, I suggest contacting them.
