  1. Headphone Jack not working or being detected


    My headphone jack stopped working after the last windows 10 update. When I plug in my headphones (known good) or a line out nothing happens. I know my computer used to detect the headphone jack and switch from built in speakers to the jack but now it does not detect anything. There is a red light in the port I can visually see but nothing works. I have unistalled drivers, reverted drivers, and updated drives with no luck. I have tried every suggestion I could find on this issue to no avail. It seems that nothing detects the jack and keeps my speakers running. Here are my computer specs and some related images.

    • Have you tried connecting a different headphones to the front panel jack?
    • Did the PC detect the headphones when it was connected at the back panel jack?
