Headphone Connectivity

Hi, i have a Creative Inspire 5.1 Digital 5500 which is plugged into Creative SB Live! Series (WDM) soundcard.
My problem concerns headphones i.e. is there a way that i can have my headphones connected without having to unplug the inspire?
If so, what would be the process and or drawbacks?
Thanks
David

So i'm not sure what happened. But about a day later I tried it again and.... Voila! It's now working. Sometimes I hate computers.
I know this may suck for someone having the same problems, but do all the stuff I tried first! That normally should fix the problem.

  • Iphone6 doesn't play music (have tried obvious things like volume etc and plugged in headphones, connected to a speaker via bluetooth, and tried to play from the inbuilt speaker). Does anyone know what the problem is and how it can be resolved?

    You can't buy the part from Creative as a spare.
    I'm not sure how compatible other parts might be, but that would be a question for someone who really knows a lot about this area of electronics.
    The Creative repair for this is likely to be expensi've, but the problem is most likely a broken solder connection than an actual new headphone socket. So if you know someone experienced in surface mount soldering you could probably get it repaired just with this.

  • Creative Labs HQ-2300D Dolby headphones connections

    Hi I would be extremely grateful if you can hep me with the following question. I am currently setting up my ASUS laptop for a home cinema setup and in the interest of good neighbourly relations I am hoping to use your Creative Labs HQ-2300D Dolby headphones. However my laptop has an inbuilt soundcard with the standard headphone connection (no optical connector). Will I need external soundcard with an optical connection to hear Dolby digital sound on DVD Movies through your headphones? If I do can you recommend an external soundcard with the appropriate connectors, I was hoping to purchase the Creative Audigy 2 ZS Notebook PCMCIA Sound Card but does this have the right connectors for the HQ-2300D headphones to get dolby digital?
    Many Thanks

    Can anyone help?
    Would an optical cable be the correct way to get a signal from the gamer card?

    When you have kernel panics, the pertinent information is in the panic report.
    These instructions must be carried out as an administrator. If you have only one user account, you are the administrator.
    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
    In the Console window, select
              DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION ▹ System Diagnostic Reports
    (not Diagnostic and Usage Messages) from the log list on the left. If you don't see that list, select
              View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar.
    There is a disclosure triangle to the left of the list item. If the triangle is pointing to the right, click it so that it points down. You'll see a list of reports. A panic report has a name that begins with "Kernel" and ends in ".panic". Select the most recent one. The contents of the report will appear on the right. Use copy and paste to post the entire contents—the text, not a screenshot.
    If you don't see any reports listed, but you know there was a panic, you may have chosen Diagnostic and Usage Messages from the log list. Choose DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION instead.
    In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.)
    Please don’t post other kinds of diagnostic report.
    I know the report is long, maybe several hundred lines. Please post all of it anyway.

    Because Microsoft Mobile Community is rather high volume in threads, I recommend to create one thread for each topic. Especially in this case, because MixRadio has its own section. Are you able to log-into MixRadio with your Nokia Account? Are you about:
    A) individual songs (or complete album; purchase),
    B) offline mixes of MixRadio+, or
    C) MixRadio Unlimited download subscribtion.

  • Possible water damage, says there is headphone connected when there isn't, what do I do?

    I bought my iPhone 4s on October 23, and it was working fine until yesterday. I made a call after I got off work, and couldn't hear anything through the headpiece. No ringing or voice, so I hung up. I then checked the volume and it showed the ringer volume with (headphones). There were no headphone connected. I tried putting headphones in normally, but it wouldn't make the same "click" it used to. There doesn't appear to be anything stuck in the jack, so I don't know what the problem is. I am a dishwasher and keep my phone in it's case in my back pocket and don't take it out while I work. It has ghost armor too, but could it possibly have gotten wet through the charger connector and/or headphone jack? There doesn't appear to be anything wrong other than the headphone jack, but I'm worried. What can I do?

    Try plugging/unplugging the headphone jack many times very rapidly.
    If this does not work try Resetting the iPhone (hold down the sleep and home buttons, ignore the red Off slider, wait for the Apple logo, let the buttons go).

  • Is there any way to keep the music playing through the headphones connected through the headphone jack, while also playing the music through a bluetooth device, such as speakers - so the audio is coming out of both devices simultaneously?

    When I connect my bluetooth speakers, the sound stops coming out of the headphones (connected via the hardwire jack), and then comes back when I turn off the bluetooth speakers. I would like to have audio coming out of both...
    Anyone?

    Thanks Kiwi. It doesn't make sense to me though, as that would seem to be only a simple change in the operating system, not a hardware 'necessity'.

  • TS2771 my iPod detected headphone but no headphone connected

    my iPod Touch detected headphone conected but no headphone connected and no sound coming out what is wrong with it?

    - 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
    - Check also Settings > General > Accessibility > Hearing. Make sure that the sound balance is not set all the way to "R".
    - 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.

    A third-party place like the following will replace the jack for less. Google for more.

  • Ringtone through speakers with headphones connected

    Hello,
    Is there any way to get the ringtone on my iPhone 5S to play through the speaker when the headphones are connected? While at work I prefer to have my headphones connected at all times (so I won't have to connect every time the phone rings), but when I do no sound comes though the speaker. Do you know if there is an option to change this?

    no

  • Headphone Connections

    Left channel audio signal to front panel
    left channel audio signal return from front panel
    I am them connected, the way I thought, but when I insert headphones into socket the sound does not got off, it sounds like the sound is being shared between headphones and system speakers.
    Please can someone help !

    I have it set up and the sound is cut off from the speakers when the headphones are plugged in.  I have it cabled so that  pin 5 on the header is conneced to the right headphone output connector on the case and pin 6 is connected to the right headphone return connector.  Pins 9/10 are connected the same way for the left.
      The reason I asked if you had sound with nothing (cables or jumpers) plugged in was to see if there was some sort of short or something tha was keeping the speakers connected.  Another possibility is something is messed up with the headphone connections on the case....  I actually had to change the board with the connectors on my case to make it work (different problem from yours).

  • Headphones connection on Lumia 925

    Got a problem with headphone connection on Lumia 925: this is a new phone, I have never tried to use headphones and when tried (Nokia earplugs which go in the box with the phone) - I got a problem, the sound goes only through one - left - channel. The jack was inserted correctly and it was clean.
    Any advise how to fix the problem?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    For me it happend mostly with headphones not with headsets.
    The headphones does have another pin configuration at the jack/plug.
    Headset   ==== mic | gnd | R | L --->  (ahj)
    Headphone ====  gnd | R | L --->  (standard 3,5)
    The Lumia 925 does not always recognize a headphone correctly. Most of the times the Lumia thinks that when you plug a headphone in it is a headset. In this case the microphone connector and the ground connector are using a same connection which will short-circuit the connection (only one channel left).
    You can interim this problem while make the first part (by beginning at the cable) of the jack unconductive (the part where the mic is located at the headset jack). With slim adhesive tape or nail polish. But be careful that you don't clog it.
    After this you can use your headphones with both channel functioning again.
    Of course this is only a workaround, Nokia has to work on it !

  • Broken lock button and limited headphone connectivity covered?

    Would a broken lock button and limited headphone connectivity be covered in the 1 year limited warranty?
    It's hardware, but I'm unsure if it's counted as physical damage or not. It's a long drive to an Apple store and I don't want to waste gas to get a 'no'.

    Covered by warranty unless the damage is due to abuse.  If the iPod is all beat up and dented Apple may say it is due to abuse.  If it just shows normal wear it should be covered under warranty.

  • Is it possible to use the built-in speakers when headphone connected?

    I have a mini amp and speakers connected via the headphone jack on my late 2009 21.5" iMac.
    First, is this the proper way to make this connection?
    If I want to switch to use the built-in speakers, I can do so by unplugging the external amp. However, it seems that there should be a way to do this via software. But, I can't find it. Is it possible? If so, how?
    I don't always want to make use of the external amp, I want to use it for music and videos, but not otherwise. And, I don't want to have to unplug it when it's not in use.
    Thanks.

    System prefs> sound> output.
    select your internal speakers in there.
    No need to unplug your mini amp.
    This actually works on your Mac? I doubt it. This does not work on either the Early '06 iMac, nor the Early '09 Mac mini in my house. When anything analog is plugged into the audio-out port, the name of the device in Sys Prefs/Sound/Output simply changes from Internal Speakers to Headphones, there is no option for one or the other.
    This has been asked over and over here, and I know of no way to do what the OP has asked.

  • Looking for a new soundcard that allows use of mic and headphone connections on front of c

    Hello,
    I'm looking for a new soundcard to replace my on-board sound. My case, Antec P80, has two jacks on the front that allows me to connect a mic and a set of headphones...
    Are there any soundblaster products that will allow me to use these two jacks?

    If you're asking Creative card ... all cards with 0-pin properiatry connector onboard can do this partly (i.e. not 00% functioning) if you make DIY connection like showen on article --> http://audigy2zshowto.blogspot.com/
    Perhaps some mb-integrated (onboard) SB systems from certain vendors has this connection utilized the way, as it's done with your onboard sound.
