Windows 10: audio jack connected devices not detected in win11

Hello, after getting my new rig I've noticed that no audio devices are detected after connecting them via audio jack. My first thought was that it affects just the front panel - but I plugged in the jaud1 connector, then checked the back panel too - no jacks are working on either side. Every possible audio driver was updated and/or reinstalled following guides from other parts of the internet, and realtek audio console is not very helpful or rich in options that I would be able to check. I had my devices working on previous, win10 based computer, all input and output jacks worked fine there. W

Does Windows log when you plug in / unplug an audio device from a 3.5mm jack?

When an audio device is plugged/unplugged from the 3.5mm jack, does Windows log that anywhere?

Not by default. You have to write an app to detect plug in/plug out. Note the jack has to support jack-presence detection.

See Device Events - Windows applications | Microsoft Docs for more information and sample code.

You can extend the sample code to log to a file or create a custom user define event in the event log.

Suggestion:

• Add code to use your built in webcam to take a photo of the culprit.

Audio Devices Not Working: audio jacks do not detect devices.

Hi Blue Star,

Thank you for the reply. I tried that too and it did not work unfortunately.

It seems the only way to listen to audio is through USB. It does not detect anything plugged into any of the jacks on my computer at all no matter how many things I try and how many times I delete an audio drivers and reinstall them.

If you have any other suggestions, please let me know. Thanks once again.
