Headphone jack kills audio drivers

Hi,

Thank you for the update on the issue.

This could be if the drivers get corrupted or not installed properly. This could also be if the audio service is not running.



This issue could have occurred due to these reasons:

• If dependency services are not running.
• Corrupt audio drivers.

Try the steps listed here and check if it helps:

Method 1:

Let's run Audio Troubleshooter and check if it helps.

a) Press the ‘Windows + W’ key on the keyboard.

b) Type troubleshooter in the search box
and then press enter.

c) Click hardware and sound and click on ‘Playing Audio’.

Method 2:

If the issue persists, I would suggest you to check if the audio dependency services are started and their
Startup Type is set to Automatic.

a. Press Windows Key +R.

b. Type Services.msc and hit Enter.

c. Scroll down through the list and find the following services.

Plug and Play

Multimedia Class Scheduler

Windows Audio Endpoint Builder

d. Double-click on the services one by one and check if the services are
started and startup type is automatic.

Do keep us updated.
