Stereo?

I was trying to use my Mogul today to drive my car stereo's aux input. I had to connect the supplied adapter to the USB port, then a 2.5mm to 3.5mm headphone adapter to that, then a 3.5mm patch cable to the car stereo input. Kludgy, but all the connections worked.

Nonetheless, only the right channel was activated. I thought that maybe I had a bad connection, but I did some testing and found that the problem goes all the way back to the HTC-supplied adapter (USB to 2.5mm). If I plugged in my HTC headphones directly into the USB port, I got full stereo. But if I used the HTC supplied adapter to a pair of headphones with a 2.5mm plug, only the right channel came through.

So there are two possibilities: 1) The HTC-supplied adapter is defective, or 2) there is something in the hardware, software, or connection that deliberately sends just one channel through that connection.

Anyone know? Is there a setting somewhere to fix this?
