Opening the device (including mid-frame) and readjusting the cable and contacts should be sufficient. That can occasionally happen.

Usually we refer to the speaker on top as the "earpiece speaker" and the speaker on the bottom as "speaker", so mind that speaking about an "external speaker" is a bit misleading here. External speakers would be connected via the audio jack.

I have a note here suggesting this speaker as a replacement, but I have not had any problems with my Pinephone speaker so have not tried it:

Do you have bluetooth audio working? I've tried my phone with a few different bluetooth audio devices and all I get out of them is a loud buzz when they connect. Have tried with Mobian and Arch.

The following speakers would be compatible: https://wiki.pine64.org/wiki/PinePhone#S...NE64_store

But it's unlikely a defective speaker and rather a contact issue, which can be fixed by readjusting the cables and contacts.

There are no cables to adjust, just spring contacts, not sure how to fix  permanently, it's not easy to rip apart put back together. was hoping the engineers who design this thing would step up with suggestions.
