Windows 10: Plugged In / Unplugged In Device Messages Constantly

Hi there, a couple weeks ago I had an "accident" on the laptop, and initially everything was messed up, such as when I would press a certain letter it would type something else and I couldn't log in immeadiately. Everything is now functioning again, except the audio. The problem is that the audio is completely mute.

There was a red x on the Speaker icon and I pressed it and I restarted the laptop. So when I logged back in, the red x is gone, but there is a message that keeps popping up and saying:

B&O
Information
You just plugged a device from the audio jack
Realtek HD Audio Manager

And then:

B&O
Information
You just unplugged a device from the audio jack
Realtek HD Audio Manager

And it keeps going back and forth between the "plugged" messages and the "unplugged" messages. The messages in in the bottom right on a rectangular black/grey tab. Even now the messages are still popping up constantly.

I have a feeling there could be an almost simple solution to this problem. Do you think maybe either I could use headphones or attach an outside speaker to it or something?

Just so it might help matters, the laptop is a Hewlett-Packard Pavilion and of course I'm on Windows 10 using Firefox.

Has anyone had a similar or same situation happen? I am open to different suggestions and then maybe I could sort out answers and pick out which might seem like the best possible solutions.

So I'll be right back in some hours later.

Extremely bizarre issue where headphones don't work after being unplugged and plugged back in

I was going through your suggestions, until I got to this part. When I got to step 16 on that list (create a new admin user account and see if the problem persists in that account), I tried that suggestion and created a test account. At first, when I plugged
in my headphones they weren't working (same as my original problem). But then when I unplugged them a Windows notification message popped up in the bottom right, saying something along the lines of "an audio device was disconnected". I plugged my headphones
back in and got the same kind of windows popup asking what type of device I just plugged in, and I selected the headphone option. After that, the headphones worked fine even when unplugged and plugged back in. Unfortunately, they are only working fine in that
alternate user account, and not in my normal one.

So I guess that means that the problem lies somewhere in my account settings, but how on earth do I fix it?

network cable unplugged message when it's acutally plugged in

did you install the drivers before or after you enabled it in bios?

check device manager to see if its listed and has a driver installed and wether it reports the device as working .
