Im so happy that i figured this out

It might not be 100% accurate

1) Go to settings

2) Click Sound

3) Click output

4)plug your earbuds in

5) Click headphone port

6) slide the balance bar around, and it should work

(if you take your headphones out and it doesn’t make noise, slide the bar around again)

Hope this helped"

I'm having the same problem. I have a Dell laptop and so I've been taking with the reps. They gave me links to reinstall and I'm still having the same problem. The install links I got were: chip set, bios and the audio driver. I tried different headphones with no luck. I've looked online for a fix. One actually worked but it was only temporary. I'm wondering if my bluetooth devices are part of the problem even though they were never an issue before. I've never had this problem before and this one is a complete mystery. Even the reps at Dell are stumped. Their solution is to do a mail-in service.

On one phone, it didn’t work until I pushed hard on the plug and heard a click.

I have the same problem, everytime I plug in my headphones it says they aren’t plugged in, and these are brand new. Although, I tried restarting my Dell and now my headphones are working. I’m assuming you have to restart your computer every time you plug in your headphones to work, hopefully this works for you guys too
