Most probably the speaker(s) are not properly wired and left and right
channels cancel each other. You could check this as follows: play a
mono file and meanwhile try the following:
doas outputs.master=200,0
doas outputs.master=0,200
doas outputs.master=200,200
first two should play but the last one should produce (almost)
silence.

fwiw, to control individual channels (if hardware allows it), put the
channel number between squire brackets:
sndioctl output[1].level=0
