    No sound from speakers/headphones

    Disconnect the front panel headphone/mic jacks from the motherboard and then see if the rear panel GREEN speaker jack works (either with speakers or headset). This is in case the front panel jack is causing no audio out. Power off the PC before opening and disconnecting the front panel audio.

    The connector for the front panel audio is listed as #21 on the motherboard drawing (below).

    Sound problem with jack connected headphones

    My laptop is a Dell 16 7610 with Windows 11, 23H2. During the last few weeks, I have the following problem with the sound of my laptop. The sound works all right with the internal speakers and/or Bluetooth connected speakers.

    However, when I try to connect external speakers or headphones via the laptop’s jack, they are not connected. The sound continues coming out from the device’s internal speakers. I tried 3 different external speakers without difference.

    When, through the Device Manager, I uninstall the Realtek audio device and restart with the headphones connected on the jack, they are working , but when I withdraw them and reconnect they stop working. If during the restart the jack is not connected but I connect the headphones after the restart, they don’t work at all.

    Can somebody suggest what to do?
