Speakers playing when headphones are plugged in


I have an HP laptop with windows 10. When my headphones are plugged in, the speakers are still playing. When I go to sounds, the only device listed is the speakers. How can I silence the speakers when the headphones are plugged in.

 

Windows 10 headphones and speakers bug

I have a Dell G7 laptop. Here's the problem:

1. I plug in my headphones/earphones to the headphone jack. Works just fine.
2. I keep the headphones plugged in, and then turn off my PC.
3. I then unplug the headphones, and turn the PC on again.
4. The computer thinks the headphones are still plugged in and the speakers don't work.

I have to plug and unplug the headphones again while the PC is on, for the speakers to work. Is this a bug? How do I fix this?

 

Speakers don't work but headphones work


I decided to update my audio drive so i went to the Lenovo website and installed the windows 10 (64 bit) driver, after restarting I noticed that there was no volume at all, i tried the Windows 8.1 driver and now only my headphones work. I also noticed in playback devices only the speakers are listed even when headphone are plugged in.
