Why is my music playing through headphones and speaker?

Just yesterday my iPod Touch started acting weird. First it would play my music for awhile, then pause. I would hit play, then it would start playing but only through the speakers. It would then start playinh through the earphones then pause again. And then this morning my iPod started playing through both the speaker and headphones. Help!
ps- I have an iPod Touch Second Generation That Has Been Recently Restored

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.
- Restore the iPod from backup.
- Restore the iPod to factory defaults/new iPod.
If you still have the problem it is likely due to a hardware problem like maybe the headphone jack. I would them make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

Ringtone play through headphone and speaker

With the headphone (come with the box) plug into iphone 4, when I selecting the ringtone from the settings > sounds > ringtone, the iphone will play the sound through headphone and speaker. Same things happen either with silent/mute switch turn on or off. When in public area, I would like to have the ringtone to play through my headphone only not the phone speaker, is that anyway to do this?

with iOS 4.1 on both my 3GS and my wife's iPhone 4, I can hear the ringtone through the headphones regardless of whether the phone is muted or not. I can hear through the speaker (with and without headphones) only when the phone is not muted...
no setting for it, but it should work...

Sound -music plays thru headphones AND speakers at the same time.....

I have MacBook Pro, in WIndows when I play a CD or an MP3 player, etc... I hear the sound through the headphones AND the speakers.. plugging in the headphones should mute the speakers automatically. It works just fine in the Mac OS, but Windows I cant figure out why... it runs on the SigmTel Audio. Any ideas anyone??? Am i missing some setting?
Hope to hear from anyone soon.. any suggestions is appreciated!
Thanks

The sound card on the macbook has a combined optical digital audio output/headphone out (minijack). So sound is being piped out both sound outputs in OSX and XP.
The difference comes in because XP and the windows sound drivers for that card, do not know how to handle dual digital audio outputs and instead of shutting down the internal digital speakers(on our Macbook)when say your headphones are plugged in, windows just leaves both digital outputs open.
To resolve this issue, contact Apple or the soundcard vendor to obtain a Windows XP driver that supports digital output on the dual-mode analog/digital capable sound card.
To work around this issue, use analog speakers or headphones.
Hope this Helps!

Ipod touch 8gb will not play music. It will play through headphones and while hooked to dock though. Any suggessions? I've been through all the reset, restore and nothing has fixed it....

Ipod touch will not play music. It will play though with headphones in and when attached to dock. Any suggestions?

If you have not yet restored the iPod to factory defaults/new iPod try that. If stil have the problem you very likely have a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Why isn't my music playing through my headphones?

IPhone no longer plays music through headphones or on speaker but will work when making a call on both headphones and speaker.

my phone will no longer play music through headphones or on speaker but will work when making a call on both headphones and speaker. Also when I plug in my iPhone to a jack that uses a power amp like external speakers it works fine. I have no idea whats going on i've restored it twice and still nothing.

did you update your phone?

Music sounds static when played through headphones or speakers

i have had my ipod for a while now and it worked fine. However whenever i play through headphones or speakers the music goes to what sounds like static, i would like to know how to fix this problem and if i cant how much will it cost to have apple fix it for me.

Update - I've isolated this (I think) to be something that happens when Microsoft Outlook for Mac 2011 is open. Exiting the app stops the noise.
But still con't find out why it happens or any setting to stop it.
cheers

Are you using HDMI or an Apple Airplay Module to go to the TV Speakers?
If you are using an HDMI it's straight through output. The internal speakers are disabled.
If you are using an Airplay Module:
- Go on iTunes
- Locate the Airplay icon that has a TV with an up arrow icon much like your iPhone has for Bluetooth
- Click on that and Airplay to ModuleName

My ipod wont play music solely through the ear phones it will only play through the main speaker and quietly through earphones. Is this fixable??

My ipod wont play music solely through ear phones it will only play through the main speaker and the earphones together. Is this able to be fixed??

I am also experiencing some problems with the new software version, I bought the Belkin TuneBase for my car 25 days ago it had been working fine since I upgraded my Ipod 2 days ago, you know that sometimes if you don't get good reception you can change to a diferent preseted station on this Belkin Transmitter but since this Ipod upgrade I can't change to a diferent station and also i can't disconect it like before because before it said you were ok to disconect and I'm afraid to return because perhaps afterall is a software problem.

My keyboard (wired) has lost functionality on the music PLAY/PAUSE, FORWARD and BACK, and VOLUME KEYS. They do NOTHING. All else is fine. How can I reassign them correctly? (Don't see those functions listed with System Settings/Keybard shortcuts).

Crayolla,
Try doing a SMC and PRAM resets. Sometimes it takes 2-3 attempts for them to work so be a little persistent if they fail the first time.
SMC RESET
Shut down the computer.
Unplug the computer's power cord and all peripherals.
Press and hold the power button for 5 seconds.
Release the power button.
Attach the computers power cable.
Press the power button to turn on the computer.
PRAM RESET
Shut down the computer.
Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command, Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
Turn on the computer.
Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys. You must press this key combination before the gray screen appears.
Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
Release the keys.

When my iPhone is connected (via the Lightning cable) to the usb port in my car, the alert tones are no longer played through the car speaker or the phone. This previously worked, but has randomly stopped working, help!

I took my iPhone to the Service center of M/s RSG INFOTECH PRIVATE LIMITED on April 17, 2014.
Why are you posting in this forum about what occured with an independent service provider? How is is at all relevant to Apple?? In fact, service by any person or business not authorized by Apple voids any waranty.
