Every Windows version is swapping audio channels in games!
Long story short:
Every installation of Windows i do is swapping stereo channels L/R to R/L ONLY when running 3D applications.
This is DEFINATELY a software/windows issue because windows sound test in sound panel or youtube stereo channel test is correct (channels arent swapped).
Once i run 3D app (type of app doesnt matter, happens on every app) OS is instantly swapping audio channels.
Main facts below to prevent non-focused answers:
1. Happens on every type of hardware, different motherboards, different CPU's/GPU's.
2. Happens on every type of headset
3. Happens on ONBOARD audio and PCIe card
4. Happens on every version of drivers for onboard audio/PCIe card
5. Happens on every windows version starting from 7 to 11
Please do not post answers like:
1. run troubleshoot
2. do a sfc scannow or chkdsk
3. reinstall windows
4. install different drivers
5. try different headset
6. try to mess with sound options in control panel - none of this tweaking eg. exclusive mode/windows spatial sound etc. is solving the problem
Done all of these! This happens on every windows install, even fresh one.

Me, too. It's best to get the machine in good operating condition then see if other things work as they should.

I don't see why it matters which channel is left and which is right.
As long as you're sitting in the middle... who cares.

Experiencing audio channel swapping in games across different versions of Windows can be frustrating.

It can be but maybe a month after the last post something has been fixed?

Nothing, this seems to be unsolvable - at least in my case

Where I see a possible issue in gaming is seeing a gun firing on the left of the screen but the sound of the shot is on the right. That may be something the developer/programmer can deal with.

Makes sense when one or two games are having this problem - but this happens for me in every 3D application. Anything that involves GPU load
