Bob Merhebi, as per
http://www.dell.com/support/drivers/us/en/19/driverdetails?driverid=R301708
an update is available for your BIOS (A15). If you update to this
following https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BiosUpdate , does it change
anything?

If not, could you please both specify what happened, and provide the output of the following terminal command:
sudo dmidecode -s bios-version && sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date

Please note your current BIOS is already in the Bug Description, so
posting this on the old BIOS would not be helpful.

For more on BIOS updates and linux, please see
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs#Bug_reporting_etiquette
.

Thank you for your understanding.

Title:
  Sound imbalance

Status in The Linux Kernel:
  Confirmed
Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  The sound from the builtin speakers are imbalanced to the right.

  I discovered from the Sound Setting's "Test Sound" is that the left
  speaker is leaking sound to the right speaker causing this towards-
  right-imbalance!

  P.S.: This occurs in Ubuntu 10.04LTS too; not sure about later
  versions!
