Sound output device issue - can not choose speakers if phones are plugged in
when I have headphones plugged in, sometimes I dont want to use them for sound, but dont want to disconnect them (I got extra, and iMac is to the wall, hard to take them out without moving whole Mac; so I like having them plugged in constantly)
I dont have the option to choose inbuilt latest iMac speakers when I use ALT+volume icon.
when I alt click sound the only options are
1. headphones, then airplay devices
2. apple tv
3. pioneer VSX 2021K
how can I choose speakers on my iMac when headphones are plugged in?
Hi @tahir77
Welcome to the HP Support Forums!
I understand that the sound is playing in your earplugs and from the speakers at the same time, and that your system is also not detecting your earphones among the audio devices. I am happy to help.
Firstly, please post the full product number for your notebook. See the following if you need help in finding that.
How Do I Find My Model Number or Product Number?
With that I can find any update drivers for you, but for now you may like to look at this and see if it helps:

There are only two things that you must do to connect a device to calendars:
1) In settings>icloud, you must log in, WITH THE CORRECT ID/PASSWORD, and
2) Turn on calendars on the same page.
You said that the iphone 4 and ipad **used** to automatically sync. Do they no long sync? -

Hello,
Recently I have been experiencing problems with my sound in my iMac with OS X 10.6.2
In my sound output device list, I have the following:
- Headphones (Should be selected)
- Soundflower (2ch)
- Soundflower (12ch)
To hear sound from my iMac speaker or headphone, the Headphone option should be selected. However, everytime I reboot the OS, it go to the soundflower and I have to manually go to system preferences and select the Headphones. I don't even know what the Soundflower is and why it is there. How do I make the "Headphones" as the default selection?
This has been an issue for the past month or so.Soundflower is an audio routing program that emulates an output. It comes in very handy for people like me who use studio monitors through an audio interface as Apple doesn't allow you to adjust the volume on such setups with a keyboard (no idea why, since it works PERFECTLY under Windows 7 on Bootcamp, but I digress). I'm not sure how you installed it by accident, but you can delete it if you don't need it.
To fix your issue you need to delete the audio preferences file (I forget where it is, hopefully someone can help me out), then select the headphone output again and it should remember your setting. -

Sound output device problem since 10.6.2 upgrade...
wHey, I've had a look through some other forums and have found solutions and so on to this problem, which is basically this:
Since the 10.6.2 Upgrade my sound output device changed from 'Headphones' to 'Soundflower (2ch)'...The three options are as follows on Sound preferences through System Prefs...
Headphones
Sondflower (2ch)
Soundflower (16ch)
I use external speakers, so headphones is important to me, but everytime I change it back to headphones, the next time I restart the computer it switches back to Soundflower (2ch) ... It's only on my user account as all other accounts are fine, I've reinstalled OS X already, and have even since this problem started, bought a new iMac (no, not just cause of the problem lol)... Done a timemachine restore, yet the same is happening on the new iMac, and it's driving me nuts... I've called Apple Support they suggested reinstalling OS X, I've done just that, but it's still doing it... There must be something I have installed...Any help?
I'm hoping someone has some sort of Terminal code to switch it to set to 'Headphones' as DEFAULT Output, as there is no such way to do it on Sound preferences.
Any help greatly appreciated, thanksRefer to Apple - Support - Discussions - System does not store my sound preferences or Apple - Support - Discussions - Sound preferences sometimes messed up after boot for removing Soundflower from your Mac.
However, AFAIK, there is no way to make 'Headphones' the default sound output device, since the switch among built-in audio, headphones, (& optical output on Macs with a dual purpose optical/analog output jack) is controlled by what you do or don't insert into that jack. -
If I want to change where my sound is piped out, I have to open the Sound preferences>Output and choose Line Out, USB speakers, Digital Out, etc.
Are there any menu bar widgets that would let me control my sound output device?There was such an animal, but I don't know if it's still around or works in SL. You'll need to search at VersionTracker or MacUpdate.
