DV9720US - Speakers won't mute with headphones plugged in.

I am running XP instead of the Vista it came with. I have all the drivers but one work..(other devices> unknown device) with yellow !? I can't use my headphones because speakers won't mute. Is this a hardware problem, or something electronic broken, like a metal tab inside that senses when headphones are plugged in? I'd really like to fix this because I use at school all day! Thanks ahead of time....Matt

Which sound driver are you using? Conexant or realtek?
Uninstall the current driver, try driver from XP downgrade guide, here

Speakers won't mute with Headpho

This is for an Audigy 4-pro. When the headphones are plugged in, the speakers still function. I've turned on the option to mute the speakers when the headphones are plugged in. That doesn't seem to make any difference. Am I doing something wrong? Should I reinstall my drivers? Or is there another tweak I need to make?
Thanks.
Sam

I think I would rather just turn off my speakers manually every time I plugged in my headphones. This was not at all a constructi've response.

Can you make a 5s ring over speakers with headphones plugged in?

Hi,
Does anyone know how you can make an iPhone 5s (on iOS7.0.4) ring over the external speakers when you have the headphones plugged in? Can't find any options to make the phone that.
Reason being, I leave my headphone plugged in most of the day since do a lot of calls but if the headphones stay plugged (and they are not always in myear) then I miss calls and SMSs cause it doesn't ring.
Any thoughts?
Bob

Hi,
I assume you are talking about the side switch, which is not set to silent. And the "Vibrate on Ring" is off too, under Settings | Sound. Unless thee is another silent setting I am overlooking. It has never rang through the speaker... just rings in the headphone.

Internal Mic is mute when headphone plugged in

Hi,
My laptop is Toshiba R30 with Windows 7 SP1.
The internal mic of the laptop will be mute automatically when ever I plug in my headphone, which doesn't have a mic in it. Is there any way that I can use the internal mic of the laptop while using my headphone?
Thanks!

Hello ricky_waldron,
Your speakers do not mute when headphones are connected.
Go to HP.com and update the BIOS and chipset driver.
Here is a link to the updates.
Since you have already done a recovery, it may be the hardware not working correctly.
You may need to call HP and have the laptop sent back for repair.
Here is a link to a phone number to call HP and see what options they have.
Let me know how everything goes.
Have a good day.

Speaker wouldn't mute when headphone plugged in

I've search the forum for this problem and found several solutions but none if them work.
This is my problem...
One day the building I've stayed been struck by lighting and my laptop suddenly shutdown. When I turned it back on the problem occurs. My laptop speaker wouldn't mute when the headphone plugged in. I've try reinstall the driver and plugged in a new headphone still wouldn't mute and the sound from headphone only from one side. Is this hardware problem and can it be fix or this problem can be solve just by tweaking?
My laptop is Compaq Presario CQ45 107AU

Sawtooth won't boot with anything plugged into it.

My G4 450 won't boot with anything plugged into it at all. The power will go on but no boot. If I unplug everything (except the power cord) it will boot with a chime. Anyone know what the problem could be?

rs6er:
Well, it's likely to be a problem with the video card, the monitor, or the monitor cable. (I assume that this is your normal monitor which was just recently working on your Mac.)
Some thoughts... Have you tried reseating the video card? Does the monitor power on? Do you have another monitor and cable you can swap and try? Will it boot to Safe Mode ("s" key depressed at startup) with the monitor attached?

Headphones Not Recognized When Plugged in, Internal Speakers Won't Mute

Hi all, I've scoured these message boards looking for a solution to this problem, but couldn't find a solution that worked. Hopefully someone can!
Toshiba Satellite C655-S5312
Edition: Windows 7 Home Premium, Service Pack 1
Processor: Intel(R) Pentium (R) CPU B950@ 2.10GHZ
Installed Memory: 4.00 GB
System Type: 64-bit Operating System
The problem I'm having is that my computer won't recognize my headphones or any other external audio device when I plug them in. The internal speakers continue to play no matter what. I used the jack fine one night and the next morning it wasn't working. I've checked these external devices with other computers and they work fine. My computer is just over a year old and no longer under warranty, but I can't imagine it being a hardware issue after such a short time of use. I had this problem before right after I got my computer back from a repair shop. Turns out the guy didn't reinstall my drivers. Now, when I tried to follow those same steps, I'm getting nowhere. I can say that I noticed that the available drivers on the Toshiba website have changed. Before it was RealTek and now, after updates, it' was SmartAudioHD and now High Definition Audio Device. I don't know if that bears any significance, but I thought I'd include that anyway. I've tried uninstalling the driver, but everytime I restart my computer it's there under Audio Device Manager. Tech Support said that my comp automatically adds the driver so I'll never really get rid of it. Does that make sense?
Troubleshooting steps so far:
1.) Uninstall and reinstall drivers (restarted my computer after)
2.) Control Panel---> Device Manager---> Sound, Video Games and Game Controllers---> High Definition Audio Device (was SmartAudio before updating driver during troubleshooting)---->right click and "Enable" is checked
3.) Control Panel---> Sound---> Playback Tab (in Sound Dialog Box)---> Speakers (HDAD) green check mark but Headphones (HDAD) red downward arrow and "Not Plugged In" (Can enable or test because it's not detected)
Am I missing a driver? Am I missing a vital step? Please someone help me!
Solved!

If you are using Windows 7, go into control panel click on sounds and make headphones default. When you are not using your headphones you will have to do this procedure again to restore speakers on the laptop or computer. I am using Microsoft Gaming Headphones and had to do this because my toshiba laptop did not recognize it was plugged into the USB port. I have no problems with the plain speaker headphones only the ones that plug into the usb port.

How to select Thunderbolt audio with headphones plugged in?

Hello,
I'm currently using a late 2011 MacBook Pro with a Henge dock and two Thunderbold displays. If you're not familiar with the Henge dock, it has the connectors for the MacBook at the bottom and you drop the MacBook in to place. Very convenient when coming to the office in the morning.
My biggest issue has to do with headphone audio and the Thunderbolt audio. With the Henge dock I always have the headphone cable plugged in. It's imply an extender that allows me to plug headphones in when I want to use them. I've found that with the headphones plugged in, I'm unable to select the USB audio device for either Thunderbolt display.
When selecting either Display Audio device, it simply autoselects itself back to the headphones. I can't seem to use Thunderbolt audio if headphones are plugged in. This seems like a pretty large oversight, so I wouldn't be surprised if I was just missing something.
Does anyone have any suggestions on how to get this working? If it's not possible, any workarounds that won't cause me massive amounts of pain?
Thanks!

Does anyone have any suggestions for this, been quite awhile. :/

TS2771 I can only hear sounds from my ipod touch with headphones plugged in.

I am only able to hear any sounds/music from my iTouch with the headphones plugged in to it. I have the change with buttons selected to "on". Am I missing something else?

- Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so.
Try the following to rule out a software problem
- Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Seems you have a bad headphone jack.
Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for this price. They do not fix yours.
Apple - iPod Repair price
A third-party place like the following will replace the jack for less. Google for more.

Bluetooth speakers won't connect with new Macbook Pro

I just sold my Macbook Pro (mid 2012 release) and purchased the brand new lighter, faster Macbook Pro Retina display that was just released a couple of weeks ago (Mid 2014).
There are a host of things this new Pro can't/won't do (which I didn't know upon purchasing it), but my question right now is: why won't my bluetooth speakers (which worked great with my other Macbook Pro) properly connect/work with my new one? The bluetooth recognizes the speakers--it says they're there in the bluetooth set up--but they don't work, nor do they show up in my sound options (In my system preferences, only the internal speakers are listed as available output devices). Why would they be visible but not able to be connected?
Is there a fix? Can I get my bluetooth speakers to work? Or are these more things (along with my Apple Remote) that I have to scrap?
Thanks!

Me three. Does not work at all, extremely frustrating for an educator who relies heavily on this technology

Speakers won't work after headphones were plugged in

I plugged my headphones in briefly and now no sound will play out of the computer's speakers when the headphones are taken out. I plugged the headphones in a second time to see if the sound would work with those still and it did. I looked in System Preferences in the sound section and it won't let me change anything, in Output it just says Digital Out in the list of selections for which to output sound and won't let me click on anything.

Is there a red light emitting from the port? It sounds like digital out in activated. This could be caused by a hardware issue with the port, or something in the software. Here are a few things to try:
Try first: Repeatedly insert and remove the headphone jack until sound returns to the built-in speakers. Make sure you have something playing constantly, such as a song in iTunes.
If that doesn't work, try this: Make sure the headphones are detached. Attach a usb device (such an an iPod) to the USB port closest to the headphone/audio out jack. Insert the headphone jack, then remove the headphone jack.
If you are seeing a red light, digital out is definitely enabled. My guess would be that it's a hardware issue. Somewhere in that port, something is getting stuck, and telling the MacBook that a digital device is connected to that port.

Why do my internal speakers still play with headphones plugged in?

When I plug my headphones in, my mac does not recognize them. Why is this?

Nah it's a 2011 15" I'm starting to think I need to re-install the Headphone and audio drivers, it only happens occasionally, say if you plug it in as you are opening itunes, the sound will come from the speakers not headphones. but if you exit then plug them back in, then open itunes they're fine ... may just be a gap in apple's coding for bootcamp drivers

Speakers won't work unless I plug in headphone - or mic.

I've spent 2 days looking on this forum and many others - and cannot find a solution to this problem .
Here is what I know.
I cannot get sound out of my speakers unless I plug something into a headphone or microphone jack. When I do that, it will play through the speakers AND the headphones - UNLESS - I plug a headphone into either headphone jack AND a microphone into the microphone jack. When I do that, it finally plays ONLY thru the headphones. Pull the microphone out - sound comes through the speakers. Take all of them out - no sound out of speakers.
Here is what I've done.
A complete rebuild back to factory settings.
A hard reset and BIOS default after removing the drivers and reinstalling the original driver for my machine as administrator.
A hard reset and BIOS default after removing the drivers and reinstalling the latest driver for my machine as administrator.
Disabling the communication headphones and reboot.
Enabling the communication headphones and reboot.
Did the Windows troubleshooting - nothing showing
Here are some other oddities.
The Audio Control appears to be calling my speakers Analog Jacks instead of Speakers ( a clue as to why all of this is happening ? )
If I'm playing music or a video and adjust the volume on, preview, or test the communication headphones - the music will come through the speakers briefly.

While in the Audio control panel under Playback devices ,are the speakers listed at all? (sorry waiting for approval of you pic to display). If they aren't right click an empty space in there and choose 'Show disabled devices' .If the speakers show up as disabled right click and enable.

Satellite P745-S4217 - internal speakers don't mute when headphone or speaker plugged in

This didn't used to be the case. Is there something I need to do to make the internal speakers mute when I am using headphone or external speakers?
Thanks

You never did answer one of my questions. Did your external speakers ever work and the internal speakers mute as they should? If the answer is yes, do a System Restore back to a time when they worked properly. Type System Restore in the Start/Search box , hit Enter and follow instructions. If the answer is no, do a System Reset as follows. Turn off computer. Remove all attachments and battery. Press and hold the Power button for 15 seconds. Attach Power and insert battery. Start computer and tap F2 at the Toshiba splash screen to get in BIOS. Press F9 to setup system defaults. Answer Yes. Press F10 to Save Configuration Changes and Exit. Answer Yes to complete the process. The computer will restart.

Internal speakers won't mute when audio jack in use

I recently fixed my problem of no sound coming out of any speakers (by turning off Auto-Mute Mode in alsamixer), but now when I plug earphones into the audio jack my built-in speakers don't turn off. I am positive that the audio jack is working, as there is sound coming through the earphones, but sound is also coming through the built-in ones. I am confused because when I first got Arch installed, my earphones would work but not the main speakers. Then nothing worked, and now it won't stop coming through both of them! I will be sure to check back regularly to update you with any information needed.
