Most likely that speaker has gone bad and needs to be replaced. Have Apple or an Apple Authorized Service Provider examine the laptop to provide you a repair estimate.


In the mean time you can use the "Balance" slider to use the right speaker instead so you don't get the distorted audio. You can find this within the Sound System Preferences pane under the "Output" tab.
