Using this connector. One output going to single speaker working fine, other one going to headphone I’m only getting sound from one ear. Tried switching the connection and other headphones, problem just the same. Is the lead faulty or have I the wrong lead?
Hi
Assuming that the adapter is a Y splitter, so both female jacks are stereo: you're shorting one of the channels (right) by inserting the mono male into the stereo female, since the ring (right) gets connected to the sleeve (shield).
Test: pull the mono male and have both channels back on your headphones.
Yes, when plugging headphones into both sockets simultaneously I have audio in both ears, both headphones.
So I need a new speaker cable. Stereo or mono at which end though?

Hi
I almost forgot newer headphones sometimes have tip ring ring sleeve (which allows them to control audio/video settings on devices, if you connect one of those TRRS to a TRS you will have one headphone side not receiving audio.
but the question remains: what are you trying to achieve?
