    Headphones detected but no sound plays through

    As of earlier today, no audio will play through any headphones using the 3.5mm headphone jack. Currently do not have my USB headphones to test them. Issue was noticed after my laptop blue screened, unknown why. Volume mixer along with sound settings recognize there is supposed to be sound going through the headphones. The green fluctuates as it normally would, but no audio passes. I can hear electricity and a light clicking noise when I change settings or first play audio. Both headphones work on other devices. My laptops built in speakers work fine as long as the headphones are unplugged.

    Laptop is a ZenBook Flip 15 UX564eh_Q528

    I have done the following:

    1. Reinstalled the Realtek drivers 3 times
    2. Updated Windows
    3. Disabled my laptops normal Speakers to see if it was conflicting
    4. Made sure the headphones are the default device
    5. Changed the Default Format in the Headphones sound settings
    6. Used the audio troubleshooter
    There is a good chance I attempted more things that I simply am forgetting currently.

  3. Headphones Not Detected

    Wasn't sure what topic to put this under.

    Windows 10 refuses to detect my headphones from my headset. The mic is fine. The computer even recognizes when I plug the headphones of the headset in. But it refuses to detect them. I can go into my Sound in Control Panel all day, and there will NEVER be any
    headphones in that list. So, no, I cannot click headphones, just making that clear before someone suggests clicking on headphones.

    How do I force Windows 10 to detect the headphones that I have plugged in, so that they will work? The jack is working fine. When I plug them in it gives me the pop-up letting me know that I plugged something into the jack. But that's the end of it. It will
    not detect the headphones. Nothing comes out of them. There are no headphones in the Sound list. There is nothing. Nada. Zip. Zero. Zilch. Why does it register something is plugged in and then refuse to detect it?

    Someone please figure out why Windows 10 simply cannot detect headphones and help me fix this so I can use my headset.

    Headphones not detected and sound continues to play through speakers

    After doing a complete reset and re installation of windows on my laptop the laptop no longer detects headphones.

    With headphones plugged into the headphone jack the sound still plays through the speakers. When I look in playback devices while the headphones are connected there are no headphones detected at all.

    I have tried updating drivers but it didn't make a difference.
