Hi,
Just today, the earphone/headphone audio stopped working on my sister's laptop. She says that the sound stopped working randomly so she tried to take out her headphone jack and replug it which caused the computer to give an error and just completely crash. Unfortunately, she does not remember what the error said. She tried to restart the computer twice but no luck so far.
From my side, I tried everything I could:
- Went into the device manager and uninstalled all the sound drivers and then restarted the laptop upon which the laptop reinstalls them.
- I also checked the sound settings to see that the headphone device is being detected upon being plugged in.
- Made sure that the headphone was working fine by plugging them into my phone and also tested my own working earphones into the laptop which gave no audio either but were being detected just like the headphones. From the picture, you can see the audio being passed through to the device but I am just unable to hear it.
- The laptop speaker sound works perfectly fine. Just no audio when an external device is plugged in.
