Is the headphone jack a mono, or stereo plug?  I know it's a mono signal,
but I seem to recall "Walkman-type" (ie stereo) pictured above it.  I have some
Sony External Stereo speakers, and I can't get EITHER of them to go if I plug
the jack in all the way, 1 channel at halfway, and both, with a little jiggling
if I'm real lucky.  It falls out, though.  I figured it was just the mono plug.
Yesterday, though, a friend brought over a cable w/mini phono-->RCA, and I
ran it into the Aux on my stereo, with no problems.  Visually, there is no
difference 'tween the two plugs.  Could it be that the plug on my speakers is
bad, or do I need a mono-> stereo converter (just a patch to run it to both
channels).
