Signia Streamline only streaming sound to left side from my Apple macbook. Any suggestions?

I have a Signia streamline mic which connects via Bluetooth to my MacBook Air laptop, as a conduit for audio streaming direct to my two Signia Pure Charge & Go T 7AX hearing aids. It has worked in the past, but now will only stream to the left hearing aid.


Audiologist says it might be a firmware update issue, which I should be able to update by deleting and refreshing the Signia App. Tried that also.


I've tried:

  • Disconnecting and forgetting Bluetooth for the Signia to MacBook
  • Disconnecting and forgetting the hearing aids from my iPhone 13 and Signia App
  • Disconnecting, deleting and resetting the Signia App from my iPhone 13 and hearing aids
  • Toggling the 'mono vs stereo' options.


Any suggestions?

MacBook Air 13″, macOS 14.6

Hi JB_starcatchingirl

Thank you for your post to the community, and thank you kindly for listing the things you have already tried!


You may want to check your Mac OS settings: ie: From the Apple menu: Go to System Settings > Sound > Output ... there you can check the "Balance" slider is set in the middle. (You may want to try sliding it left and right a few times to check it is working, and / or check it works with your Signia set-up ok. )

If you still need help:


✽. You may want to look within the Signia app itself, to see if you can check on whether a Firmware update is available (or if the app is up-to-date) from within the app itself.


✽. If you haven't already, you might try updating your Mac to the newest MacOS Sonoma version.

What's new in the updates for macOS Sonoma - Apple Support says MacOS 14.6.1 is the latest update.

You can check in Settings > General > Software Updates to see if there is an update ready to install.

(NB: If so, It is wise to back-up your Mac's data before updating)

Else:

✽. If your Mac is already up-to-date, you may want to try re-starting MacOS. ((ie: deletes temporary files, re-establishes connections, may update recent setting changes, and often restores order if something is not working as expected. You can use Apple menu > Restart. Then wait, and log-back in when Mac has restarted.


All the best :-)
