Windows 10: No sound coming out from jack headphones despite the computer detecting it and the speakers...

Here are the symptoms:- If the jack headphones is plugged in before I turn on my computer, it works fine- But if the headphones is plugged in after the computer is turned on, the computer detects that there's a headphone plugged in as the speakers will stop outputting sound, but there will be no sound from the jack headphones- If you open the "Playback" tab as detailed below, the green visualizer on the current audio device still works shows that sound is still outputting even though it's not coming through your headphonesHere is the accidentally found solution: 1. Right click the spea

No sound from speakers/headphones

Disconnect the front panel headphone/mic jacks from the motherboard and then see if the rear panel GREEN speaker jack works (either with speakers or headset). This is in case the front panel jack is causing no audio out. Power off the PC before opening and disconnecting the front panel audio.

The connector for the front panel audio is listed as #21 on the motherboard drawing (below).

 

Audio will not come through my headphones, only my speakers.

Sound only comes out of my Surface Book speakers and not through my headphones in the headphone jack. I have switched the headphones being used and restarted my computer multiple times, but nothing is helping. My PC detects that the headphones are plugged
in, but still sound is coming through my speakers and not my headphones.

 

No sound from speakers/headphones

Hi,

I have the Dell XPS 8300 with the onboard Realtek HD Audio.

I can't get any sound from speakers/headphones using any of the ports at the back and the front audio jack.

The speakers are fine as I have tested them on my mobile.

I have the latest drivers installed. Sound is working fine though HDMI on my TV but i'm guessing that's using my graphics card.

I have headphones/speaker selected in sound manager. Also realtek sound manager is detecting that my speakers are connected to the audio jacks at the back and front but still no sound.

In sound manager I can see the green bar moving up/down for Speakers/Headphones.

Could the sound chip on motherboard be fried?


Thanks for you help.
