Troubleshoot the AirPods' Balance:


A. Start with a Reset:

B. Visit Apple Support links:


C. Verify an App's Balance:

If using an App, note that apps have their own balance settings as well. That would overrule that set in the Mac. So, make sure that the balance is set in the middle on an app itself..


D. Also, Clear Out Earwax:

E. Using an App?:

Check and make sure that the balance on the app is not towards the right.
