It is likely you are crossing the part of the single channel,
over to both (you are getting dual mono).  3.5mm jacks are 
notoriously bad for losing the ability to connect properly,
I have a walkman and a radio that are both faulty in this 
regard.

Record a track with only left for 10sec, then a track with only right
for 10 seconds.   The most simple way, record in stereo from a source with
RCA
outputs ... remove one RCA output and then the next in turn and then use
both together.  Listen to the result.  If you want to get more fancy
use your PC to create a track with only left and then only right, something
like Cooledit#, Creative Wave Studio% or SoundForge* will do the job.
