Laptop Speakers Stop Working After Headphones Removed
Whenever i remove my headphones, the built in speaker stops working! i dont think its a problem with the contacts of the jack, because i shone a light in there, and nothing is touching.

When i restart Windows Audio, it goes back to normal. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I am running windows 7 by the way.

I have the same prob with vista Ultimate. I unplugged my headphones yesterday, now my audio doesn't work at all....The mixer shows the audio is working and all of my drivers are up to date and all services are fine. I even did a clean boot, but no sound in built in speakers or headphones.
Can anyone help.....sound card maybe???
