Hello,

My laptop speaker makes crackling sound when I play videos through browser and in vlc player too. And its only from one speaker(Left). Is this purely a hardware problem or could be because of software/driver issues ?

Now that you're facing problems with only one speaker, its most probably a hardware problem.
If I ever face any problem like this, the first thing I'd do is boot up my laptop using a live linux cd/usb and try playing something. ;)
Try it. If its plays fine, update your sound driver and codec pack :)
