I am running windows vista and since I built my computer have been having one problem, well everything is working fine but I suppose it is a setup issue (vista has actually been flawless as far as I can tell).

When I plug my headphones into the jack on my case the audio continues to come out the computer speakers and is not channeled through the headphones. I have done "sound checks" and the headphone audio output is working, and the computer detects when they are plugged in. In all the audio settings I was not able to find how to change the way this is setup.

If anyone knows what I should be doing I would be really grateful.

Thanks,

Mike

 

What kind of soundcard is it?

 

Integrated... I think I figured it out by changing the default audio device to the headphones, but it still doesn't automatically revert to the other source when they are unplugged(I need to restart whatever application is open to get the sound to come from the speaker output).

try updating the driver for the sound card from the manufacturer's website.
it may be that you have a generic driver for it and it's not putting out the right info.
