Sound works, but no sound from headphones |
|
|
I have an Inspiron 600m that doesn't have any sound coming out of the
headphones. When the heqadphones are unplugged, there is sound from the
speakers.
What could be causing this? |

Probably a set of faulty headphones. |

I tried a different set of headphones that I know work, and they didn't help.

I'll look for the volume control. I tried a headphone set that doesn't have
a volume control, and they did not work either.

It is possible that there is a short in the headphone jack that you are
plugging those into shorting out the jack itself thus producing no sound.

That's pretty well the way it is. It's possible but unlikely that
the laptop uses an extra amplifier for the sound output. If
there is such an amplifier then it might be defective.

what I was expecting was that there would be some special driver or other
setting in the operating system affecting the headphones... It's not more
complicated?
