Audio Jack Not Working

[Leo02]

My computer's speakers work fine, but it does not recognize anything plugged in to the audio jack. Sound still comes out of the speakers and through the plugged in device.

@Leo02,

Thanks for engaging in HP support Forums! This is a wonderful location to converse with the community, get assistance and find tips! I see from the post that you are having issues with the Audio Jack not working on your HP Envy All in one PC. Don't worry we'll work together to help you find a solution.

To provide you with an accurate solution, I'll need a few more details:

Have you recently made any changes on the PC before the issue started?

Have you checked if these headphones work with an alternate device such as smartphone or laptops

Did you try to use an alternate headphone on this PC?

• If they work on the alternate device, check if the Headphones are enabled as a playback device. 

  To do this, please see the steps below: 

  • Click the Start Pearl and then type Sound in the Start Search Box. 

  • Select Change Sound Card Settings in the Start Menu Options. 

  • Next, under the Playback Tab, right click and select Show Hidden Devices and Show Disconnected    Devices if available. 

  • Select Headphones and enable 

  To Increase the volume on your headphone: 
   

  Method 1 

  • Right-click the volume icon in the notification area. 

  • Click Open Volume Mixer and increase the volume for Headphones. 
     

  Method 2 

  • Right-click the volume icon in the notification area. 

  • Go to Playback devices and right click Headphones under Playback. 

  • Go to Properties and set the volume to the maximum under Levels tab. 

  • Click Apply and OK. 

• Alternatively, I would suggest you follow the steps suggested in the support document for - HP PCs - Resolving Headphones and Headset Problems (Windows 😎 (Though the steps are for Windows 8, but the same steps should work for Windows 10 as well).

Please let me know if this resolves the issue, or if you require further assistance!
