Windows 10: I CAN'T GET MY 3 MM PLUG IN WIRED EARBUDS TO WORK LIKE THEY USED TO

As a backup to Bluetooth I received a new pair of plug in 3 mm jack input earbuds for music and streaming. For some reason the same input jack I used to use with my old pair doesn't work anymore, Why did it work before and now the sound only comes out of the laptops speakers when I plugged them in?Any tips?BGV

Trouble using wired earbuds in Windows 10, not always recognized when plugged in

How do I get my Beat wired earbuds to work in Windows 10? When I plug wired earbuds in, I am sometimes asked to sign into Dolby sound, but often there is no message and the earbuds do not work. How can I get these to work?

 

Earbuds (wired) stopped working between usages

I have a new (purchased in November 2023) Asus Zenbook laptop running Windows 11 and was watching a show with my wired earbuds. They worked fine.

I unplugged them and then a few mintues later decided to listen to some music in my iTunes Library (which they worked yesterday). Plugged the earbuds in and nothing. Still running through the speakers.

I went in to the sound settings and made sure the earbuds were set as default and were enabled. CHECK and CHECK.

Took out another set of earbuds and got the same results. Took the original pair and plugged them in to my old HP Win 10 laptop and the earbuds worked. So it's not the earbuds.

Any idea what is going on here? Suggestions?

 

Wired Earbuds Issue / Bug.

My laptop Has A Wired Earbuds/headphones slot. ( It Also supports bluetooth btw. ) I have one similar to this with a microphone. :

But when i start up the laptop they give no audio. When i remove them i hear the audio on my laptop fine it cant be the driver. i even selected them as my sound device; I found a workaround. every time i want them to work i need to :

1. Open Settings
2. Click windows update
3. click troubleshoot then additional troubleshooters
4. click audio and start the audio troubleshooter

Before you think i just need to run it and this will be fine, making this thread useless, wait i added weird for a reason. So i need to go to this screen.

Click play test sounds. I hear nothing, it go to this screen.

After that i need to close the troubleshooter Window. Disconnect my wired earbuds. reconnect them. And It Fixes Itself?????? I also need to restart the programs that were playing audio so i can hear them on my wired earbuds.. is There A Way To Fix This Weird Bug? ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Windows 10 Pro Version 22H2 ( OS Build 19045.2788 )
