First, which speaker -- left or right? If you are getting only one speaker playing, have you checked all your hardware connections? Have you checked the settings on the module itself? Is it a stereo module? Do the part parameters on the module have panning? Are you 100% sure you are setting the track volume controls properly? There are many factors and it may be difficult to give you the answer conclusively. Can you supply more info?
