Headphone Help please

Hi.

I've managed to kill 12 headphones in a 2 years. All of them were only ever pluged into 2 ports (My tv and my computer) and they were from many different brands.

How they each die is that I feel a static charge net to my ear, so I unplug them in hope of saving them. When I plug them back in the right ear (always the right ear) is silent. This has happened on both the TV and the computer. The earphones themselves were of brands and qualities ranging from low-end JVC's to Razer gaming headsets to a relatively expensive seinhouser.

Any idea what could be causing this? Is the a solution short of replacing the TV or Computer. Any way to tell if its a volt issue or a tone issue? I doubt its volume, as I usually keep the volume at 50% or less.

Thanks!
