Left headphone not working in MacBook pro

I have a problem with my Macbook pro 2017 (no touch bar) and earpods. So the problem is when I connect headphones to laptop, the left fide doesn't work. The only solution I found is to set max level for left side in MIDI setup and click on left speaker in "Configure speakers..." menu. The left side begins to work, and then I just put the level back to default value, and headphones works good till I plug them out.

So I'll be glad to find a better way to configure it once and forget about this problem.

MacBook Pro with Retina display, macOS Mojave (10.14)

It can happen that one side of your EarPods stopped working or the volume is turning down on one side.

However, to be sure there are a few things you can do:

> Plug your EarPods in another device, are they working perfectly or are you experiencing the same problem?

> Do you have another pair of headphones? Try them out with your MacBook Pro. Are they also having the same problem? If the second pair isn't working, Contact Apple Support

> Try cleaning out the headphones port (by blowing or getting compressed air blown).

> Insert your EarPods cable a few times again in the headphones port. Still not working?

> Isn't your cable bend?

> Did you experience this problem too before upgrading to Mojave?
