No Sound Output from front headphones jack on HPE-070a

Two days ago, i purchased a new HPE-070a with Windows 7 64-bit and Realtek HD Audio Drivers. Unfortunately, while the sound output to the speakers from the rear jack is working really well, the headphone jack at the front of the box has no output. I've updated the Realtek drivers and reinstalled them as well,but when I run the troubleshooter, it tells me that "sound playing not functioning". The PC recognises that, once the headphones are in that's where the sound is output, but there's nothing going on.
If you've got any ideas, it'd be greatly appreciated if you could let me know. If i don't have headphones, my girlfriend's going to be assaulted with Counter Strike and Dragon Age!
Thanks.

Beaker, have you checked in the Control Panel to assure that all boxes are checked correctly? It may be that the headphone jack is not enabled.

TX2000 no sound from front headphone jacks

Hi everyone, Ive started this because I have a major problem with my pavilion tx2000. it is not outputting any sound from the front headphone jacks, it was working okay on windows 7 64 bit but one good day without any aparent reason it stopped working I mean, I used to plug my headphones and immediatly the laptop speakers shout and I coud hear music from any of the two front headphone jacks but one day I did it and the speaker didnt shout and I couldnt hear anything from the headphones, assuming that the headphones were the problem I plugged another headphones that I knew were working fine with the same result.
I was using windows 7 default drivers then I updated the drivers from the official realtek site (I thnk version R267) with no effect, then I installed linux and plugged the headphones, to my surprise audio were outputting from both, the laptop speakers and the headphones, after some configurations I managed linux to output audio only from the headphones but I have to change it manually if I wanted the laptop speakers to work, I then reinstalled windows 7 64 with the updated driivers from realtek, to my surprise realtek audio manager will pop up a message saying "you just plugged and audio device" BUT ONLY IF I PLUG SOMETHING TO THE MICROPHONE JACK!!!!! otherwise it won´t say anything even if I plug my headphones to any of the both headphone jacks, my assumption is that somehow the headphone jacks lost its sensibility and are not detectng the headphones and as so they wont route the audio signal through them, also Ive read on forums that I could change something in the realtek audio manager as "disable front audio jacks" or something but i can´t see that option anywhere in any of the various versions of drivers I´ve tried on the various OSes Ive tried, Also in some point I did notice a red ligth coming out from the first headphone jack, I assumed it was spidf signal or something.
What im thiking is that this is hardware related, that somehow the jacks lost sensibility and cant detect my headphones, the question here is this: I dont mind routing the audio from the laptop speaker to the headphone jacks manually (I mean with some script or something), but is there any way to do so In windows, In linux I could but in windows I just cant seem too get it to work without windows detecting my headphones automatically, or do I have to change the whole front panel in my laptop, it is offcourse out of warranty and I don´t want to keep spending money on this as this is quite an old machine wich Ive invested way too much.
THANK YOU ALL IN ADVANCE.

NO sound from front headphone jacks.
No hardware changes made.

Oh and one more thing:
In the Audio tab in Sounds and Audio Devices in Control Panel, it has this option of
"Use only default devices"
Is it OK to check that?
Does that mean that if I choose Audigy 2 for the sound playback and etc. options, it would "lock" the default as Audigy 2?
Because as I said, I don;t want to go back and forth switching from onboard to Audigy over and over.
I just want Audigy as my sound, and be able to use the headphone jack on the front bevel of my computer.

Yesterday suddenly the sound output from my Headphone is not working

Hi, I've Mac Book Pro 15" with Retina display. Yesterday suddenly the sound output from my Headphone is not working. When I tried to solve this, I've noticed in system preferences it's jumping from Internal speakers to Head phone and vice versa. Can anyone help me on this issue please? I am using the original Apple Headset only.
Thanks

Tell us:
OS X version ?
What may have changed prior to the onset of the issue of "... suddenly... not working..." and " ... preferences ... jumping from ..." ? Software added, upgraded, updated?
what precidely do you mean by " ... preferences ... jumping from ..." ?

I see that your Question has languished for some period of time without response. You have posted your issue in Using Apple Support Communities whose topic is 'How to use this forum software's interface, features and/or how to find what you wish'. It is a relatively low traffic and inappropriate forum for your problem. I will ask our Hosts to move it to " MacBook Pro " where it may get a more rapid response from your fellow users.

High pitched (~15KHz) tone from front headphone jack

I often use headphones plugged into the the front audio jack while using Final Cut Pro. After playing audio, I will often hear a very annoying tone somewhere around 15 KHz. Playing any audio will make the tone go away. Sometimes it doesn't come back, but it always eventually comes back. I can't wait till I get old and lose my hearing so I don't have to deal with this stupid tone.

I had problems like this on my G5 tower (which I have since upgraded to a Mac Pro). I purchased a USB sound device to plug my headphones into. There are myriad options out there from M-Audio and other companies. Cost can be anywhere from ~$75 on up. If you are interested in this, I can post more info. The nice part about this route is that you will get much higher sound quality than the headphone jack on the computer because these external devices often have high quality DACs (digital to analog converter) chips.

No sound from front headphone jack after SoundBlaster installat

Hi everyone, I recently bought a Sound Blaster Audigy 2 Value PCI Sound Card.
I installed it as normal as any other PCI card. I disabled onboard sound in BIOS. I installed all the Creative software and drivers, and the sound is working...but only from the sound card at the back of the PC.
I have on my Dell 4550,at the front of the PC tower: 2 USB ports (which still work), and a headphone jack, which doesn't work.
The headphone jack at the front used to work before I instlaled the Audigy 2 card, but now, after the installation, it doens't work.
Does anyone have a solution to this or an explanation as to why it is behaving like this?
Any info is greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
Michael

Record sound coming from a headphone jack

I have stereo whose only output option is a headphone jack.
I've tried connecting to an aux input for the speakers connected to my iMac and directly into the line in port but am having trouble finding software to capture the recordings.
Audacity, Apowersoft Audio Recorder, Adobe Audition will not recognize the input.
QuickTime, GarageBand and Audio Hijack all recognize the input, but only records and plays back out of one channel (and yes, the balance is set to the middle). But when I'm using the aux input from the speakers, both channels play.
What type of device do I need to connect between the stereo's headphone jack the line in port?

We need to know which iMac variant (there are over a hundred) and what version of the Mac OS you are running. Those affect how you get to a result.

No sound output from dock connector or headphones but speaker is fine

I've got a 3GS which I've had since October.
Recently, there has been no sound output from the headphone socket - or rather, what does come out is very strange, sounding almost electronically distorted.
I thought that maybe the headphone jack was broken, but now I've found out that the same thing can be heard through a dock when the iPod is connected this way.
I'm fairly sure the dock connector is still fine as the phone charges and can be controlled by the dock etc
Most of the discussions I've found relate to sound not coming from the speaker on the phone, but this is absolutely fine.
Any ideas?

Hi, and welcome to Apple Discussions.
Have you tried resetting the PMU?
I'm not optimistic that this will help any more than the procedures you've already tried, but it won't hurt to try.
Do you still have your OS 9 installation? If so, try booting into OS 9 and see if the problems with the audio are happening there, too. If so, you can bet it's a hardware problem.
How big is your hard drive and how much space remains available on it? If you don't have your OS 9 installation in order to check out whether it's a hardware problem and you have enough available hard drive space, you may want to try an Archive and Install of the OS in order to make sure it isn't an OS X system-wide problem. If that doesn't do it, you could back up your hard drive and restore your software.
All of this may just be spinning your wheels, but it's all stuff you can try before shelling out a lot of money for repairs.

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

How can I remove the background sound from the headphone jack for my MacBoo

for my MacBook Air problem adding music intensifier (Panasonic ST-HT1000) to give it an unpleasant sound background that sounds like a whiz, it's not so loud, but it is an unpleasant .. after a short time can get used to, but the fizz does not pass, however, believe that it is a big problem.
Further I notice that when MacBookAir disconnected from the charger, it remains quieter sound.
At first thought that the headphone jack (3.5 mm Headphone:
Connection: 1/8-Inch Jack) or wiere have problem, but tried 3 different cables, but that does change enything, the problem remains.
When I added iPhonu3GS playing - the background sound were not, then everything is OK!

There is no way to bring that up unless you have it typed in a document. You can use My Support Profile to find a list of serial numbers that have been purchased or registered with your Apple ID.

No sound from the headphone jack

MacBook Intel, purchased Jun 2007, Leopard 10.5.1 here.
The problem - about two weeks ago headphones stopped to work. The effect is: I plug them into the headphone jack, the preferences show that sound output changes to headphones, the sound comes out of the headphones then after between 20 to 50 seconds it is cut and goes dead. Removing the jack and plugging it again gives another 20-50 seconds of sound.
Checked five different headphones + one set of external speakers. Same effect. Checked with different audio sources inside the system. Same effect.
Checked system config - everything fine, OS "thinks" the headphones are on but the sound is cut in less than a minute.
Did reset as described (switch off, remove power sources, hold power button for 5 seconds, power on) - this brought back the familiar sound when the computer powers on (was silent previously, though I didn't notice it) but the headphone effect persist.
What can I do besides sending to Apple for repair?

if the start up didn't have the normal tone then that means that when you restarted/shutdown the computer then you had the volume on either mute or down very low..
So i assume that your computer speakers work fine...
i think that it may be the computer switching to mute all the time when an external device is plugged into the headphone jack.... either way you have 5 months left on your warranty and i would take advantage of that or you may be kicking yourself in july...

Digital Audio Noise from the Headphone Jack

I have been searching for a while to see if anyone else has this problem.
I have random faint digital noise (bleeps, bloops, and whirls) from my headphone jack. This happens regardless of application. I can get it going good by just tossing the volume bar back and forth on the sound pref panel.
I have considerably less of this from the line out but still detectable noise.
I have disconnected everything non essential from the Mac Pro and my power outlet are reduced to a minimum. (monitor and Mac)
I have tried numerous headphones including Etymotic ER•6 and Sony MDR-7505.
This has always been present in 10.4.7 and 10.4.8. Like I said, its faint in volume - but it gets annoying!
I have read the following below and believe these do not apply to me because this is not an external powered device.

I found out today what is causing the noise on my Mac Pro!
Our next door neighbor has a really high power HAM radio that I am picking up static and transmissions from. I thought I was going insane when I heard weird voices coming out via my headphones. I know it is our neighbor because I heard him relay his name and location. Had to get my wife to listen to prove I was not going crazy.
Here is the weird thing. I do not have AirPort or BlueTooth on the MacPro...so I cannot figure out how the transmission is permeating the Mac. Could it be a shielding issue on some internal component?
Thanks!

How do I play audio from my headphone jack and internal speakers?

How do I play audio from my headphone jack and internal speakers at the same time ? I have a splitter for my audio jack so that when i connect up my second monitor I can have it so it also plays audio as well as anything else i have connected into the jack but how do i let the internal speakers emit sound at the same time?

Hello,
If you mean the internal speakers in your Mac, you can't play audio through them at the same time you have anything plugged into the headphone jack. When you plug something into the headphone jack, it disconnects the internal speakers.

Video out from the headphone jack died... 30gb 5g

Hi all.
So, I have a 30gb 5g ipod. I have played video out of the headphone jack to a tv for years now. I have the apple version of the video out cable. So, recently, the video stopped playing. The audio plays. YES, it is set to tv out = on, NTSC. This worked fine. Now no video. Video DOES play on the ipod itself. And, I bought an expensive dock cable that has composite out and that does work for video. So, I am just wondering what happened to my video from the headphone jack. I guess I could try to get it fixed, but is it worth it? Any ideas would be appriciated! Thanks!!

OK, I was DETERMINED to figure this one out...simply because it USED to work...
Somehow (last 'update' I assume)...my 'TV out' was turned off.
On my 80GB model, it was under menu > videos > video settings > TV Out
I just turned it 'on' and I was back in business...of course it doesn't make up for last weekend, when I was out of town trying to get the darn thing to work...but at least it works now.
Hope this helps.
