The sound on that SPECIFIC video does not work. All other videos seem to have sound, just not that one. I have tried opening this video in all browsers on my Macbook Pro (mid 2014), but it doesn't work on any of my browsers. The browsers I have are Chrome, Safari, Microsoft Edge, and FireFox. I tried opening that video in Incognito mode/private browsing and it still doesn't have sound.

Here's a video I recorded and uploaded to Youtube showing my issue:

That's an interesting question! There's a pretty simple answer - there's only sound recorded onto the left channel.

You should first check your sound output settings and see if you have the balance set to the center. Go to System Preferences--> Sound--> Output tab. Then check your balance. You can play around with dragging left or right and anyone can recreate the issue by dragging the Balance all the way to the "right" when playing that video.

If you have your sound output in the center on the Balance, then you should try playback of your audio through your internal speakers instead of through the HDMI connection to your display (or other sound output). That way you can isolate if the problem with your Display itself or in its settings.

If you find the problem only happens on your external display, see if you can adjust the sound settings on it and see if there's different audio selections.
