If I select "VLC" from the context menu the audio file plays but does not play properly, VLC sends the audio to the left speaker only with a very low volume. I have to increase the VLC audio to it max of 125% and turn the headphones volume up to its max of 150% to make the audio being played out the left speaker easily heard.

That's odd that vlc wouldn't automatically convert a mono stream to both sides.
I tried to play the file with VLC in KDE under X11 and with the audio option of "unset" the audio plays correctly albeit it is still low volume, so here again the issue appears to be Wayland. Having said this though if I set the audio option to "stereo" the audio plays but is echo e.

Wayland won't affect the audio output.

VLC will only tell me the file codec data while the audio is playing or paused, if I wait until the audio has finished playing VLC doesn't show any information on what the Codec is. VLC is telling me the codec is "MPEG Audio layer 1/2(mpga), Type: Audio, Channels: Mono, Sample rate: 16000 Hz, Bits per sample: 32, Bitrate: 24 kb/s, and, because I'm

That's a strange format.  32 bits per sample??
You could also use "ffprobe" on the command line to get detailed info about the file and its data formats.

I ran ffprobe /usr/local/downloads/audio.mp3 from the command line and if I remove it configuration display I can't see any info on the number of bits per sample the vlc provides. This was running ffprobe in KDE under X11, I haven't tried it under Wayland yet to see if it is any different.

ffprobe /usr/local/downloads/audio.mp3
