Windows 10: Sound not coming through recognized headphones but works when nothing is plugged in

I have the issue where if i plug in my headphones, i get the notification asking what I plugged in. Then i get sound for half a second then it cuts out. I have tried multiple pairs of headphones on multiple devices, and it is not an issue with the headphones. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the driver, Realtek audio; doesn't switch when headphones are plugged in. I have cleaned out about a centimeter of the jack, and there is no physical damage. I have tried different sound properties, different sound enhancements, NO sound enhancements. Sound comes out perfectly fine when nothing is plugged in. Bluetooth headphones work ok. My driver is up to date as well. Windows troubleshoot couldn't find anything. Please help!

Headphones are plugged in, but the sound doesn't come through.

Hi,

Please follow the below mentioned steps to set the Headphone as the default device:

Open Control Panel and select Sound.

When the Sound dialog appears click the Playback tab.

Verify if the Headphone is listed and the right sound card listed under playback devices.

If so, right click the Headphone device and click on default playback device.

If they are not listed, Right click on the blank space and click on show disabled device.

If the Headphone gets listed,

Right click the “Headphone” select “Enable”. Right click the “Headphone” again and select “Set as default device” from the same list.

Click “Ok”. Now remove and reconnect the Headphone and check.

Let me know if that helps.

Kind Regards,

Engr. Jamshed Muhammad

 

Sound problems when plugging in headphones


Since buying a new laptop and updating to windows 10 I have had a problem with the sound, the problem being that when I plug in a set of headphones I manually have to go on playback devices to set my headphones as default and also on the volume mixer to select my headphones on the drop down arrow or else the sound will keep coming out of my speakers. Basically it is not doing anything automatically, so everytime I plug in headphones, or connect to the tv I have to change everything manually, and do the same thing when disconnecting or else there will be no sound atall.

I did read on the internet that by plugging in my headphones and then making them my default sounds device would work because it is supposed to automatically change when they are unplugged but unfortunately this is not the case for me. Also I am curious as to why even when I don't have my headphones plugged in, they are still listed under playback, but it does not say they are unplugged. I would appreciate anybody who can help me with this problem because I have run out of ideas.

Many thanks in advance

 

Windows 10 no sound comes through the headphones

Original Title : Mr

I recently received a 15.6 inch Zoomstorm GT5 Gaming laptop with realtek sound. Just yesterday, the headphone jack was working perfectly. Today, nothing. When I plug my headphones in it recognizes that something is plugged into the audio jack but no sound comes
through the headphones. Help!
