It sounds like you might not have a problem with that ear, but rather the other one. It could be that the ear without wax hears normally, while the other side may be muffled from compacted ear wax. If you have not had a professional look in your ears with an otoscope, you probably should.
Sound does travel slightly faster as air temperature increases and this applies when the sound enters the ear just as it does in any other air. Once the sound has passed the ear drum, air is no longer the medium in which the sound travels so air temperature no longer affects the speed of sound.
The ear does not produce (make) sound.
ear drum
it penetrates the ear
The ear hears sound waves.
Loosely: Sound waves are compressed in the ear canal, it makes the three ear bones vibrate and hit the ear drum. The cochlea, a snail shaped cavity filled with sensitive hairs translates the sound into electrical signals and is sent to the brain to interpret.
The ear closest to the sound source hears it first. IF you always hear it "first" on your right, then you should have your hearing checked.
Your ear hears every little thing. There is no known reason for that. I researched this once an there is no known thing. hope this helps.

It is hard to hear because the ear is not sealed quite yet, which means it is close to the part your ear hears with.
The ear needs the ear canal to send everything that it hears to the brain.
put you're ear to a wall and talk to the person on the other side!
The pitch of a sound is determined long before it reaches a person's ear, and for that matter, even if it never impinges on a single ear.
Basically, it means that you're hearing what the other person is saying, but you're not actually listening and taking in what they're saying to you. This is the real answer: Not listening to what is being said. Not attentive.
The person would not have lost their ability to detect sound (that is located in the inner ear). However, the ear mechanism would no longer work as it should and the person would not be able to hear properly as the sound would not be transmitted to the inner ear.
