left and right speaker are swapped in Arch KDE

I installed Arch KDE and have pipewire. I am seeing that speakers are interchanged(the ones that come in laptop) but same isn't true with wired earphones. I am finding no definitive solution to this problem.

Forgive me but I'm curious.  How did you notice that?  If my L and R were reversed the only way I'd even notice would be with headphones and I'd have to be listening to certain specific albums that I've listened to a million times.

Settings page on kde. There is a test speaker option. Just type sound testing in Firefox and you'll find sites where you can test out.
