No sound through headphones

Today, I reset my computer after struggling to get Kaspersky Internet Security reinstalled. After the reset, I was able to get it installed, but I have run into another issue (surprise, surprise). Sound does not output through headphones as it should.

The drivers are up to date (IDT High Definition Audio Codec and AMD High Definition Audio Device) as they should be. Windows even detects that my headphones are connected, but sound does not go through them unless I use the sound control panel to test the audio. Look at the screenshots for further details. It lists my headphones as the default communication device, and where it lists the speakers/HP option, it lists that as the default device. I cannot list the communication headphones as the default device, only default communication device.

Audio works through the speakers. Audio goes through the speakers even with headphones connected. The only time audio comes through the headphones as it should is when I test audio through them in the control panel. The headphones work just fine, and this issue did not exist before I reset my computer.

Solution
Never mind. I fixed it myself. I uninstalled both items listed in the Sound, video and game controllers menu in Device Manager and then restarted my computer, and Windows installed the default Microsoft device. Now it works properly. Hell, audio through the headphones sounds better than it did before (with the Beats Audio control panel installed) and the volume automatically adjusts itself to be lower when I plug in my headphones, where it didn't before.
