new nord! (but there's a problem...)

So I just got my Nord (nord piano 88) this past week, and I already absolutely love it! However, today, after some routine practicing (with it plugged into a very very small speaker), I returned to my piano to find that when I plug in my headphones it only works in one ear. It is not just the headphones as I checked multiple pairs, though it may be the headphone connector since I only have one of those and thus cannot check to see if that is the problem. However, I am very annoyed because I am a student living with a bunch of people and cannot simply plug it into speakers and practice whenever I want! So I would really appreciate any tips on what might be causing the problem/what I should do because I really want to/need to practice! Thanks!

Hello scooley,
Welcome to the forum!
by headphone connector, I take your meaning to be 1/8" stereo jack to 1/4" stereo plug.
I would definitely check that first, and then if no joy, contact Nord technical support at this link:

Make sure you are using a STEREO 1/8"-1/4" adaptor (I'm guessing that you're calling this your headphone connector). The wrong adaptor will cause this symptom.
