Mackie Onyx 1620 Firewire Channel Balance Problem

My Mackie Onyx 1620 has suddenly developed a channel balance issue on the Firewire input with the left channel being down about 50% relative to the right. Playing back via the analog tape in everything is fine. My question is: is this a Firewire i/o issue that could be solved with a new firewire card?
