As far as position related goes, this time the unit is standing up on
the opposite side as before, so I think the problem is heat related. As
long as the top and bottom are off, the left channel does not go out.
That makes a problem because as long as the problem does not assert
itself with the top and bottom off I cannot poke and prod and measure.

Of course you can, that's when you use a hot air gun and "freezer" spray.
In
fact heat related issues are usually the easiest of intermittent faults to
find IMO.

I agree. Most probably heat *and* position related. As I said originally,
look for bad joints on items screwed to the heatsink. When the thing is the
right way up, heat expansion on a bad joint may well cause it to become
intermittent. When it's on it's side, the change in mechanical force on that
joint, could easily keep it *good*, electrically.
