you'd think so wouldn't you OM? but everything else - including BIAB - plays fine on speakers and then when i plug phones in the sound for both channels gets to the phones. i'm plugging the phones into the front case headphone socket and i get the motherboard popup that asks me to confirm i've plugged phones in.

so can't be the phones or the lead or the socket or the hardware - at least that's the conclusion I draw. and the fact that RB plays fine on speakers and on phones with the uphoria ASIO driver tends to suggest its not an RB setting.

maybe we'll never know.......... i can't think of anything else it might be but its purely an RB problem
