Public bug reported:

When using analog headset plugged into the audio port, sound is mono and
processed so voice is silenced

If played to speakers it works fine

After killing pulseaudio at a bit of trouble, once can test using:

speaker-test --channels 2 --nloops 1 --device plughw:PCH,0

which works fine for internal speakers, but is mono for headset
If you watch youtube video, dialog is suppressed while other sounds may work

This can be somewhat patched by going into alsamixer and set the left
and right Headset channels to different levels using q/z and e/c keys

This appears to be a bug in snd_hda_intel
