Hi,
I've got a weird problem, not sure what's going on.
I have a set of headphones that I plug into my front panel audio jacks. Recently, the sound suddenly stopped on the left driver--but returned if I pressed down on the audio cable where it plugs into the jack.
And then the sound also stopped in the right driver too.
I tested the headphones on my phone and they work fine. I tested another set of headphones on the front panel audio jack and they didn't work either.
I switched to the mic in jack on the front panel and programmed it to the headphones. This worked fine, until I unplugged the headphones to listen to my main speakers (which are plugged into the motherboard's audio jacks in the back). When I plugged the headphones in again, the left driver had no sound--unless I pressed down on the wire again.
Any ideas what's causing my front panel audio jacks to die like this? Is there any way to fix it, or are they both just dead now?
