I bought some new headphones that my laptop does not accept. Music will continue to be output through the normal speakers. They work flawlessly on the mobile phone, so they are not broken. The laptop picks up another pair of headphones with the same standard port without any problems. I have searched for drivers and are all current. No loose contact, no sound card deactivated. What can I do now?
It may be that you have to have the headphones in the laptop a while, so that he recognizes them. Otherwise, look in the device manager if they were ever recognized. Villecht is also something going on with the jack? Dust or etc.
edit:
If all else fails, restart the laptop. Had worked for me.
Do you have Windows 10? Then you have to select in the taskbar first on the speaker icon, then in the black speaker window in the top right of the arrow and your headphones as a source.
There are speakers / headphones Realtek Audio… Under what category should the headphones be found?
I have unfortunately restarted several times, does not help. Jack should actually be okay, the laptop is only 4 weeks old… How would I know if the laptop has recognized and what if he did not recognize? I suspect that, but I do not know what to do about it
So if he has recognized it should be there then:
Yourname was recognized by the device.
Your name of the device can now be used!
However, if it does not work, I would have to know what brand they are. Maybe you have to download a driver online?
The headphones are Panasonic and the laptop is a brand new HP Pavilion… So far I've detected with and used nothing found. There's Realtek Audio speakers / headphones… The laptop does not respond to the headphones, neither the pling when something is plugged in something on the taskbar
Exactly, you have to click on the Realtek Audio headphones, then they will be used as the current playback device.
Sounds strange. It should not be a driver problem, for headphones you usually need no drivers. Maybe the headset does not get in contact properly with the jack? Just a little bit crazy, and see if something happens.
