Might want to mention what the bug is [0]:

> Noticing that the audio balance for your headphones is going slightly to the left or right? Balance Lock was designed to solve this by keeping the audio centred either in the middle or to a custom lock point. No more annoying left/right audio drift!

I've never personally noticed or heard of this bug, myself.

It happened occasionally on the older Intel MacBooks before the 2020s but I can't remember any instance of it occurring in the past few years.

edit:

Reader the old thread linked below remind me, it usually only happened when I was using non-Apple bluetooth headphones (never had AirPods).

I ran into it all the time when I had a Mac from work. I even went through the hassle of setting up a hammerspoon script to fix it.
