Windows 10: Audio unable to play externally but can be heard through headphones

Hi,I am using Windows 10 and I have encounter a problem in which the audio only plays when I use headphones. I have tried all the methods that I can find in this site and other websites but they are not working in my case. The only possible reason that I could find is that my laptop only has the Speakers Realtek High Definition Audio installed, and the headphones might have gotten mix up with the connection, any idea how to fix this? I am also unable to download the latest driver Realtek has to offer as the sytem does not allow me to. Thanks.

Audio unable to play externally but can be heard through headphones

Hi,

I am using Windows 10 and I have encounter a problem in which the audio only plays when I use headphones. I have tried all the methods that I can find in this site and other websites but they are not working in my case. The only possible reason that I could find is that my laptop only has the Speakers (Realtek High Definition Audio) installed, and the headphones might have gotten mix up with the connection, any idea how to fix this? I am also unable to download the latest driver Realtek has to offer as the sytem does not allow me to. Thanks.

 

headphones play but do not register as a device and external speakers keep playing

i plug in my headphones and the realtek popup tells me i have plugged a device into the audio jack (also how do i keep that from popping up and making a tone every time?) and audio plays through mu headphones but audio also plays from the external speakers.
additionally i cannot find the headphones listed as a device. i am using skullcandy headphones connected by a m-m cable and a hp pavillion.
