Windows 10: Add wired headphones to windows 11

I use wired not Bluetooth headphones on Windows 11. They worked last night, but not this morning. When I checked my output devices, my headphones had disappeared. My system doesn't seem to detect my headphones anymore. What may have happened, and how can I get the system to recognize my headphones?
