Playback through headphones in jack on Windows 10 not working

Currently, on my Windows 10 PC I have the following strange behavior: my speakers and my USB headphones both will play sound fine, but my headphones in the headphone jack do not play sound. Additionally, my headphones are not listed under playback devices when they are plugged in.

What I have tried so far:

1. Restarting Computer
   
2. Double-checking volume mixer to make sure I did not accidentally mute my computer
   
3. Right-clicking sound icon and following all steps in “Troubleshoot Sound Problems” and restarting
   
4. Troubleshoot Settings → additional troubleshooters → playing audio and following all the steps
   
5. Going to Device Manager → Sound, video and game controllers and uninstalling either Realtek Audio Device or High Definition Audio Device and restarting
   
6. Going to Device Manager → Sound, video and game controllers and selecting “update driver” on High Definition Audio Device
   
7. Updating OS
   
8. Downloading drivers from the manufacturer of my computer and restarting
   
9. Going to Realtek Audio Console → Device Advanced Settings → toggling “Disable front panel jack detection” on and off and testing
   

Edit: The headphones work when plugged in to another Windows 10 PC and plugging in different headphones to my headphone jack did not seem to fix the issue.

Edit 2: When I put my headphones in the jack, sound stops coming through the speakers. When I installed a different driver (the one installed by the sound troubleshooter, not the one from the computer manufacturer), my headphones appeared in the list of devices, but no sound comes out.

Does anyone have any suggestions of anything else I could try? Any help or tips are very much appreciated.

Windows 10 Headphones not auto-selected when inserted to audio jack

Hi, I have an Acer Swift 5 laptop running latest Windows Version 10 64-bit.

Is there a way in setting to select the headphones as the output device automatically when the headphones are connected to the Audio jack?

When the headphones are connected to the audio jack, a notification pops out in bottom right corner prompting:
"Which device did you plug in?", with the Headphone highlighted. I have to then click "OK" to select it.

Is there a setting to make this automatic?

In Sound settings, under "Output device", I only see "Readltek(R) Audio" listed, even the headphones are connected.

Thanks.
