Issue with my Nintendo Switch's Headphone Jack

[Wisman]

The issue I have with it is that whenever I plug in my headphones I only get audio through my left ear. I have used multiple headphones and they all have the same issue. The only way I can fix it is by twisting my headphones to a certain position and stay completely still. I would appreciate any help I could get with this issue.

Do all those headphones work fine with other hardware? Because so far it sounds like broken wiring inside the cables.
Make sure connector goes all the way in, some ports require more force applied than others.

Yes they work with all other devices just fine.

There is a chance some kind of dirt or something is inside the port, so try to clean it off if possible. A little bit of alcohol and Q-Tips will do just fine. Do it when the console is off.
There is, however, a chance you've got defective port. Hard to tell without properly inspecting it, although if that's indeed the case - it should be pretty cheap to fix that.
Also asking Nintendo might lead to unexpected results, like some easy solution or free repair even if the console is out of warranty already. After all, they know their product and its issues.

As an alternative the switch supports wireless earbuds now. The wife is using her apple earbuds with it.

You could try cleaning the port. You could also look into warranty repair.
