OK guys, here's my problem: there's sound coming out of only one side of my headphones for some reason when I've got the headphones plugged into the jack. It's done this before but only for a few minutes, but the second time it's done it (this time), it's just stopped working.

I've tried cleaning the gold headphone connector and the inside of the jack itself (using an air aerosol thingy) and it didn't do any good. Any other ideas?
Have you tried plugging other headphones into the same jack? If other headphones work fine, then it's not the jack. It could be that your headphones' wire is frayed or broken somewhere under the insulation, which means you'll need a new pair. Try the headphones with another audio device. If they work just fine, then it's a problem with the jack on whatever you were using them with in the first place.
