Problem is, it’s only coming out of the reviver speaker and not one of the speaker on the bottom and I don’t know how to change it so it comes out of both or just the actual speaker

It may need a repair OR, if you go to Settings > Accessibility > Audio Visual and the balance slider is all the way to one side, adjust it to the middle and then see if you hear sounds from both speakers. If it is in the center, there is a hardware issue with the speaker.
