[SOLVED] Audio - Headset - fostex issue

I got this https://www.massdrop.com/buy/fostex-x-massdrop-th-x00 today and I tried it on 2 android and 1 windows 10 devices and it worked fine, but the sound is pretty odd while using it on Arch.

I used an earphone until now and it works pretty fine.
I don't know how to troubleshoot this problem. I am not really knowledgeable about this domain. I didn't understand most of the content of the wiki pages.

Edit:
I am not sure if this piece has to do something with the problem http://storage6.static.itmages.com/i/17 … 4e20d.jpeg

Since you need to register to check the device:
Specs

    Fostex x Massdrop
    Closed-back design
    50 mm dynamic transducer
    Magnesium alloy construction
    Mahogany earcups, brilliant gloss finish
    Leatherette earpads, matte black
    Magnetic flux density: >1 tesla
    Impedance: 25 ohms
    Sensitivity: 94 dB/mW
    Maximum input: 1,800 mW
    Frequency response: 5–45,000 Hz
    10 ft (3 m) thick, braided Y cable
    1/4 in (6.3 mm) gold-coated stereo phone plug
    Weight, without cable: 12.3 oz (350 g)
    Weight, with cable: 17 oz (482 g)

Included

    Carrying pouch
    2-year warranty
    1/4" to 1/8" adapter (for use with portable devices)

The problem was: The jack wasn't fully in and needed some force to budge.

What's the problem more exactly in the picture?
Are you using some kind of 3.5 mm adapter?

It's not a problem. I talked to someone about the problem that I am having and he told me that the problem might be caused by that adapter. I updated the post: It's 1/4" to 1/8" adapter.

What "problem" are you experience? Please use the guide: "How to ask questions the smart way" as an inspiration in order for Your question to be understood by the Arch Community.

I don't know how to describe it. There is audio, but it's strange. The actor's voice is pretty low and the sound is not normal. I am not familiar with audio terminologies. I apologize for that. I will try to ask my brother when I get back from work. He might know something.

Did you read the guide about "How to ask questions" I provided in post 4?

To troubleshoot audio you can use:
- Alsa: Alsa troubleshooting guide
- Pulse: Pulse troubleshooting guide

I did skim through it and noticed this in bold Be precise and informative about your problem .

I thought the way of how the audio is altered isn't the matter here. I will try to see how I can define the alteration.

Aha, I didn't notice the pages that you referred. I will go through them when I get back home.
