Windows 10: Windows 11 headphones 3.5mm aux not detecting

Recently after upgrading to windows 11 my headphone aux has completely stopped detecting anything. I have tried the headphones out with my laptop, and they work perfectly fine. I have tried restarting, updating, updating drivers, and more.

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.

Aux detection

Hi, I'm trying to use the audio from a studio mixer to my laptop that needs to be used in OBS, I have a connection straight from the mixer that connects to my laptop via aux, but my laptop detects it as a headphone and not a microphone, I've tried to go on mic and add it there, but it doesn't detect, I also went into control panel and check if there was any driver update but all were up to date, i usually use another laptop to do streaming and when i connect the aux, an option usually comes up for me to select which mic i want and on that laptop usually select "line in" and everything works perfectly but on my personal laptop I don't get such options, also both laptops are from the same manufacture which is Dell
