Has anyone else had this issue. I bought the laptop from another fellow and completely wiped the drive (mine has 500GB+64GB SSD cache.) I then installed Windows 8.1 and proceeded to install all of the drivers. After all of the installing was done, my headphone jack refused to work, at all. I thought it was a hardware problem, so I opened the laptop to check (out of warranty anyways.) There is absolutely nothing wrong with the hardware, so I continued to uninstall/reinstall drivers. I finally got the headphones to play sound, however, the laptop is not turning the speakers off when headphones are plugged in. Has anyone had this issue before?![]()

The headphone jack is broken, it normally detects the plug is in via a contact that is pressed when headset inserted, this part may be broken.

That was my initial thought... and the headphone plug is more loose than normal as well so that supports the though that the jack itself is broken. However, I can't seem to find WHAT is broken. I may take a trip to Radioshack so I can study some other parts and find what might be broken. From a little research, it seems like this could be as easy as bending the contact that is worn out...

Razer Blade 17" (2012), Windows 8.1 does not turn off speakers when headphones are plugged in.
