Headphone Jack not Recognized in Windows 11

I have exactly the same problem, happened in the last few days but not sure exactly when. None of the online guides to sort the problem work. Extremely frustrating.

I have tried them all and none of them work.

The headphone jack was working fine on windows 10 but on the insider preview of windows 11 it does not work properly.

If i connect my earphones when the laptop is turning on but if i take the earphones out then the laptop is working i cannot connect them again. Now i will have to restart my laptop if i want to connect them again.

This is so much annoying.

Good Day Ruskle,

My name is Carlo, I am also using Windows 11 pc and community member like you. Let us work together to sort this out.

First, try to connec the headphone using a different computer or device for us to check if the issue is with the computer or the headphone itself.

If it does the same using a different device means that the headphone is faulty .

If the headphone works using a different device proceed with the steps below.

Here's the steps you can try.

-Click Troubleshooter then Additional troubleshooter.
-Look for Playing Audio and run the troubleshooter.

-Go to Device Manager
-Expand the Sound and Video Game Controllers
-Look for Audio driver that was installed
-Right click and Update
-Look for "Browse my computer for driver
-Let me pick drivers available drivers
-Choose an old driver and use it.

Connect the headphone and proceed with these steps.

-Go to Control Panel
-In Control Panel, select Large icons from the View by drop down menu.
-Select Sound.
-Select the Playback tab
-Right click the headphone and click Enable.
-Right-click it again and select Set as Default Device.
-Right click headphone and click Properties.
-Click the Levels tab, then drag the volume slider towards the largest value.
-Click on Advance Tab
-Uncheck the box to "Allow Application to take exclusive controls on this device"
-Click OK.

Restart your computer and test the headphone audio.

If issue persist, let's download the updated driver
What is the exact model of your computer?

To check the system model proceed with these steps.
-Press Windows key + R

I hope the information above helps. Please let me know how it goes.
Have a wonderful day ahead and stay safe.

Carlo T.
