I got another problem on my laptop. My speaker and my headphone jack got no problem. Both got sound out. But the problem is when I plug in my headphone to headphone jack, my speakers still get sound. What happen actually? Sensing problem?
What you have here isn't a software problem, it's a hardware problem. If
the problem were in software, we'd have reports of this problem affecting
all manner of laptop computers. The 3,5mm audio jack is a standard
component, and the way it knows to switch off the speakers is a tiny
microswitch at the back of the jack that is pressured by the end of the
audio plug.
I suggest you have a techie look at it, esp. if the problem is not
reproducible on a computer of similar configuration (which I guess the ML
will tell you).
Good Luck.
