There is a chance that your headphones aren’t plugged in firmly or your system settings have the audio out of balance. More than likely though, you’re editing a project where we used a single mic to record audio into one of the two stereo channels.
This is exactly what is supposed to happen.
You correct this in Final Cut Pro’s Inspector pane (Command-4) under the audio tab (see the speaker icon up top).
Select the clip(s) you want to correct (either in the Timeline or the Browser) and change the Audio Configuration to Dual Mono. Then, disable the silent channel. See below:
