Kubuntu Hardy Heron Sound Issue

KmixWell, I upgraded my system from Kubuntu Fiesty Fawn to Hardy Heron today. Five minutes into using it, I found my first oddity: the left channel was playing ten time louder than the right on my headphones. After a little bit of digging, playing around, and tweaking, I discovered that if you open up KMix, Right Click on the Output for the device you are using, and select split channels, the problem goes away.
