Topic: BABYFACE headphone output always in mono , Help !

Hi community, I simply don't know what to do anymore, I own an iMac on high Sierra, my babyface and total mix works great but when I wear headphones and use the output on the side of the hardware it only gives me mono signal.

when I open total mix and use the pan all the way to the right for example, I see the main out sending the music to the right however on my headphone I still hear music on both sides.  mono button is not active.

I tried using other headphones, I updated the drivers, I tried restarting, reseting Totalmix, I don't know what else to do, please help me here, I`ll have to sell my babyface if I don't find a solution.

any suggestions from anybody ?
thank you

Possibly a hardware issue of the TRS plug. You may have to send the unit in.

Hi!
I don't think this is hardware issue, because I've got the same problem!!
I'm on latest Mac OS and BabyFace firmware/Totalmix updates
Everything works fine on my Windows computer!

We can not reproduce this. Try to do a Total Reset in TotaMix FX.

Tried total reset, no change. sad
I have Sonarworks headphone version installed, maybe that has to do something with it. But I have already tried it enabled/disabled, uninstalled, reinstalled. All the same result.
I will do a complete OS reinstall soon, will see if that fixes the problem.
Will post the results here
