  1. Headphones not recognized on my Dell Laptop with Windows 10


    I have a Dell Laptop, Inspiron, with Windows 10. For some reason, over the last few months, my laptop won't recognize my earbuds. It continues to play sound over the laptop itself, instead of into the earbuds. I've update the software, I've tried to troubleshoot, etc. I have a similar smaller Dell Laptop for my bedroom, and the headphones work fine on that computer. Any suggestions? I hate it when a feature just stops working all of a sudden.

    :)

    Headphones Not Recognized as Plugged In

    I installed the Conexant driver from the manufacturer's website and ran in compatibility mode for Windows 8. Still the same problem; headphone jack is not recognized at all.

    Windows 10 HD audio driver still lists headphones as a playback device, but their status is always "not plugged in" even if they are plugged in.

    This is a new laptop (just bought last month from the Microsoft store) and came preinstalled with Windows 10.
