Headphone jack on spectre x360 doesn't detect headphones

[KatZ_]

So I just got my Spectre x360 today, and I was super excited. Until I realized that the headphone jack was broken. I tried to restart my computer, and looked up what could be the problem, and found out that even when my headphones are plugged in, it says that they aren't. The headphone jack is unable to detect anything being plugged in, so even when they are sound continues to play from the speakers. Anyone know how to fix it?

@KatZ_ Have you ensured your headphone/speakers work on another devices?

Have you reinstalled the audio drivers and update them from the HP website or was it the HP Support Assistant"

(I recommend reinstalling from the HP website, if you haven't done it yet: Click here to find and install the same)

While you respond to that, here's what you need to do, if the speaker/headphone work on other devices but not on your HP device:

Use the following steps to open the Component Tests menu.

1. Hold the power button for at least five seconds to turn off the computer.

2. Turn on the computer and immediately press Esc repeatedly, about once every second. When the menu appears, press the F2 key.

3. On the main menu, click Component Tests.

4. The Component Tests menu displays.

   Your Component Tests menu might be different, depending on the components installed on your computer.

Audio Test - The Audio Playback Test checks your system to make sure the audio device is functioning properly. During the test, a few music notes are played in sequence and then repeated. This test takes 1 minute to complete.

To run the test, click Audio, and then click Run once.

Choose either the speakers or the headphones. When asked, enter the number of notes you heard.
