Headphones usage on Satellite A660-BT2G22 -sound plays out of the speakers

When I plug headphones into my Satellite A660-BT2G22 Laptop the sound plays out of the speakers and the headphones.
There has to be a way for me to make the sound play only through the headphones and I would really love that because I am going off to college soon and will have a roommate and I will want to listen to my own music and stuff and not force him to hear my stuff all the time.
Please help?

This notebook model is not known to me but check control panel and option for some audio manager there. On notebooks with Realtek sound card there is Realtek HD Audio manager.
Check all options there, especially small folder symbol placed at the right top side. When you click on it connector settings window will be open. Enable auto popup dialog.
Now, every time when headphones will be connected you can choose headphone as only device you want to use.
Please check it out.

  • I have an iPhone 5 and with any pair of earphones that I plug in the sounds comes out of the speakers and not the earphones

    I have an iPhone 5 and with any pair of earphones that I plug in the sounds comes out of the speakers and not the earphones
    The problem occurred a few days after I had updated to iOS 7.02

    Hey Tahls23!
    I have an article that can help you troubleshoot that issue:
    iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2802
    No sound through stereo headset
    Inspect the headset jack for debris and clean if necessary.
    Connect the headset and make sure the connector is pushed in all the way.
    Check the volume setting. Adjust the volume by pressing the volume up and down button on the left side of the iPhone.
    If you are trying to listen to music and cannot hear any audio, make sure that the music on iPhone is not paused. Try squeezing the headset microphone to resume playback. Additionally, from the Home screen you can choose iPod > Now Playing, then tap Play.
    Make sure the latest version of iTunes is installed on the computer that you are syncing the iPhone with (songs purchased from the iTunes Store using earlier versions of iTunes won't play).
    Try another Apple headset (some third-party headsets require an adapter to be used with original iPhone).
    Try a different song or video.
    Check to see if the iPhone alert sounds or other iPhone sound effects exhibit the same audio issues.
    Disconnect the headset from the iPhone and see if sound comes from the built-in speaker.
    Take care, and thanks for visiting the Apple Support Communities.

  • Qosmio X775 "popping" and "cracking" sound came out from the speakers

    Hi,
    so my problems started a few days ago when some "popping" and "cracking" came out from the speakers.
    It's not all the time, but like in between 3-4 seconds i can hear it. I also connected the laptop to a speaker system and the problem remained, which means that it is not from the speakers, but from the signal.
    I tried to reinstall the drivers but it seems that it's still not fixed.
    Also the Waves MaxxAudio 3 disappeared when i reinstalled the drivers and now can't get it back?
    Has anyone an idea of what might be causing this and how to install again the Waves Maxxaudio?
    Thank.

    Hi
    Not quite sure what could cause this sound issue but it could be possible that this crackling sound appears due to some latency problems in most cases this appears because the CPU is stressed by some processes running in the background.
    I would recommend checking this using an tool called DPC latency checker.
    Check if anything else is causing small DPC increases
    Mostly such issues might be caused by drivers like Lan or Wlan updates might help to solve this

  • Sound plays out of my speakers AND my earphones at the same time

    I'm not sure how long this has been going on for but I just found out that when I plug my earphones in that the sound still plays out loud from my laptop (supposed to only come out of earphones).
    How do I fix this?
    This laptop is only months old and I can't seem to avoid running into problems with it's audio. Thanks a lot beatsaudio HP. I'm a student so it's very important when in a library that I'm not producing music or sound for everyone. Just for my ears only please.

    Hi @jlarbs 
    I understand that you are having a problem with sound playing through the speakers even when earphones are plugged in. I am happy to help.
    A fix to try is, to go into the Control panel
    then Hardware and Sound
    then click on Sound and select the Recording tab
    Select your microphone/headset as the default device, and press OK.
    Also you can look at this page from answers.microsoft.com, as if offers a few more suggestions.

  • Since I updated my iPhone on iOS 5, the sound coming out of the speakers and the headphones has gotten worse. Any idea how I can resolve this problem?

    I don't know what happened to it. I just updated it and now, the sound comes out tinny and overdriven. My setting were just as before, but the sound has become very crappy.
    Any solutions?

    You're pressed the volume switch top right side to go up ??
    If that doesn't help ...
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
    Then try sound.

  • No sound coming out of external speakers

    Here's my situtation. I just recently received my MacBook and I wanted to connect my external speakers that I used with my previous PC laptop. It worked perfectly with the PC laptop. When I plug in the speaker cord into the port, no sound comes out of the external speakers. But sound comes out of the internal MacBook speakers.
    I plugged it in the right port.
    Volume is on both in the MacBook and the external speakers.
    Speakers are on.
    Speakers worked fine with my PC laptop.
    What can i do? The connection is fine because it was just plugged in my PC laptop and they were working. Thanks in advance for any help.

    Thanks for the reply. This is what i tried...its really weird but it works.
    I plugged in the speaker plug into the port with the headphone symbol and now sound comes out of the speakers! (Maybe this was the correct port in the first place! Sorry for the newbie mistake.) I was used to ports being color coded and I just plugged in the green speaker cord into the green port on my PC.
    So the port on the left is for audio in right?
    And the port with the headphone symbol is for headphones and speaker (audio out)
    When I go to to System Preferences, it recognizes the speakers as "Headphones". But I don't think that really matters.
    Thanks for the help. I have sound now coming out of my external speakers.

  • I just purchased a 6  and there is a static sound coming out of the speaker when it is idle. I have the sound on low and turned off and it still makes the static sound.

    I just purchased a 128 Gig iPhone 6+. When I have the sound off and volume as low as possible, I get a static sound coming out of the speakers. It is distracting and annoying when I am in meetings, etc. Does anyone know what to do? Thanks in advance.

    Couple of things you can try but it looks like you may have to take it in
    1. Settings --> Cellular --> Change "Enable LTE" to just "Data" if available
    2. Toggle your ringer off and on
    3. Settings --> General --> Accessibility --> Toggle Noise reduction off and on
    If none of the above works - consider taking it to Apple
    If you hear no sound or distorted sound from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch speaker - Apple Support

  • My iPhone 5s has stopped playing music out of the speakers. It works when I plug in my headphones but other than that there's no sound. It just randomly happened so I'm not sure if I can fix it or if I need to bring my phone in

    The "restore disk" is built into the Mac. See About Recovery.
    Need more specifics about what error messages you got while installing Adobe Flash.
    However, you can almost avoid Flash altogether by setting YouTube to play the HTML5 version instead.
    Click the Try something new! link at the bottom of the YouTube page.
    I don't know about the sound issue. Might be hardware as you think. Try other headphones to check.

    Hello,
    I am currently an owner of an Ipod Touch 4th generation. I see you are having problems with your Ipod Touch, so I will try to find a solution to your problem.
    Hold down the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons for at least 10sec. or until Apple logo appears (Nothing will be lost, this is just a "Hard Reset")
    Hope that helps!
    If none of the above solutions work, can you please respond back ASAP as I will try to find another solution to your problem (This might even help others with the same problem!)
    Cheers!

  • What can be done to correct slow video or freezing in Adobe Premiere Elements 12? Sound plays fine but the video is too slow to even start a project.

    Sound plays fine but the video is too slow to even start a project.

    film78
    On what computer operating system is your Premiere Elements 12 running on? Have you updated 12 to 12.1 yet? If not, please do so by using an opened project's Help Menu/Update.
    Not enough information in order to help you.
    Looking for
    1. Properties of source media (including file extension and brand/model/settings of camera that recorded the video).
    2. Is problem restricted to one particular file in one particular project? What happens if you start a new project? What is the
    duration and size of the project when performance is slow and freezing sets in? What are you doing in the program when this happens?
    3. Using a pen and tablet device instead of a mouse?
    4. Does problem exist if antivirus and firewall(s) are disabled?
    5. Please describe computer environment, including dating on video card/graphics card driver version. Did you install the program to the
    default Local Disk C? Where are the Scratch Disks directed and how much free space there?
    Lots more questions, but let us start here and then decide what next based on your reply.
    Thank you.

  • I have a galaxy S4. When I connect a headphone, certain songs play extemely low while others play at the correct volume. The same songs play fine thru the speakers. Can someone shed light on this.

        chrisglobe7,
    We want you to be able to enjoy all your music! Were all the songs downloaded from the same source? Are all the songs that play at the low volume from the same place? Is the music you are listening to stored on your device or a 3rd party application?

  • HT2844 My front headphone jack does not work when connecting a head phone to a new mac pro desktop computer.  The sound still comes from the speakers.  Any solutions?

    The front headphone jack on my new mac pro desktop computer does not transmit sound when connecting a headphone or ear buds.  The sound still comes from the speakers and is not redirected to the head phone.  The port has never worked.  Any solutions?

    okay, try option-clicking on the speaker icon on the top of your screen. That should bring up a list of sound output options. including headphone. You could try messing around with Audio MIDI. It may be possible that the thing is still stuck inside the headphone jack. Careful use of a toothpick may get it unstuck. I dunno, I've never had a problem with the headphone jack. If all else fails, call Apple or take 'er in for an appointment
