My System

Re: Rear Output Jack Stopped Working

Not sure what audio codec you have but mine has both an option to mute rear speakers when front headphones are plugged in and an option to detect front jack insertion. If you have these options I would disable atleast the mute rear speakers one. On my system it is in the Audio I/O tab. I had to click on the wrench icon in the anolog section.

You can also try wiggling your plug (headphone/speaker) in the front jack to try and get the sensor to work when you pull it out. Maybe a can of compressed air might get things moving.
