The ringtone/notification issue is really weird. But the preloaded ringtones do seem quite inconsistent in terms of loudness. They're not normalized very well.

I just got this phone from someone on eBay and i noticed the lower speaker being way lower than the top one. I actually rinsed the phone under running water to see if maybe there was a clog in the speaker. I left it faced down to drain out and it still didnt really work. The next thing i did was call myself from my wife's phone and put my phone on speaker with full volume. I made loud sounds and blew into the speaker and that actually fixed my issue. Since then my bottom speaker is just as loud as the top one.

It's quite an embarrassing engineering compromise. I'm surprised though that the drivers aren't even more out-of-phase and different in high frequency response.
But on my Z3, voices tend to be biased to the left when listening to videos, since the left (top) driver is the only one with anything resembling mid bass.

Same problem here. One speaker is much louder than the other. How did you solve it? Thank you!

I was never able to solve it. On my Z3 it isn't worse than what I've learned to live with. In some cases voices tend to appear shifted to the left due to the wider frequency response in that speaker driver and possibly influence from phase, but it's not as bad on mine as I guess it might be on some other units. If the shift of sound is too annoying, I plug in my headset instead.
I came from an Xperia S which had a single speaker on the back (the front driver was smaller and used only for calls), and there I had to cup my hand behind the rear speaker to get decent sound, so even the Z3 was a major step up.
I still think that the engineering of the speakers on the Z3 is a bad compromise (the top speaker behing offset to the left suggests a late design alteration), but they've done even worse in the past.
