    Headphones work only after restart with headphones plugged in


    I have a Dell G3 2019 laptop running Windows 10 with Realtek audio driver the latest. When I plug in my headphones after booting up, the headphones have no sound and the speaker remains on. If I restart after plugging the headphones in, the headphones work fine and the speaker is off. Then if I unplug the headphones, the speaker comes back on and plugging the headphones in again changes nothing -- speaker on, headphones silent. In the sound settings, headphones don't appear in either case. Any ideas on how to fix this problem? Thanks for your help

    I have a Dell G3 2019 laptop running Windows 10 with Realtek audio driver (the latest). When I plug in my headphones after booting up, the headphones have no sound and the speaker remains on. If I restart
    after plugging the headphones in, the headphones work fine and the speaker is off. Then if I unplug the headphones, the speaker comes back on and plugging the headphones in again changes nothing -- speaker on, headphones silent. In the sound settings, headphones
    don't appear in either case. Any ideas on how to fix this problem? Thanks for your help

    Headphones work only after restart with headphones plugged in

    I have a Dell laptop running Windows 10 with Realtek audio driver (version
    6.0.1.8216 which I believe is the latest). When I plug in my headphones after booting up, the headphones have no sound and the speaker remains on. If I restart after plugging the headphones in, the headphones work fine and the speaker is off. Then if I unplug
    the headphones, the speaker comes back on and plugging the headphones in again changes nothing -- speaker on, headphones silent. In the sound settings, headphones don't appear in either case. Any ideas on how to fix this problem? Thanks for your help
