battery only charges when laptop is off

It's a Toshiba satellite. I've seen the other posts about a loose jack, but no amount of jiggling helps. Every few hours, while running off ac, the battery starts draining. It's still receiving ac power, while it's draining, and then I'm left with a dead battery. It will run for about a half hour before it shuts down spontaneously and starts charging the battery. The power supply is sending 15.3 volts instead of 15, but I couldn't see an extra 3/10 making a difference. Thanks!
