x14 R1, headset audio jack doesn't detect anything
Hi All,
I tried everything, different headsets ( phones, gaming, etc. ) but can't seem to work. Basically as I plug those headset jack into the port at the back of my x14 R1, nothing happens, not even in the control panel of the audio setting, doesn't even show anything as registered. I went to Dell website and all drivers are updated, also checked Windows 11 updates, also checked device manager, all showing no issue. Is this common issue? Specific to Alienware only or all Windows 11? Any suggestions or fix please?
Hi @RamaIndrawan !
I recommend you try these:
Realtek Audio Driver | Driver Details | Dell US
Intel Dynamic Tuning Driver | Driver Details | Dell US
Intel HID Event Filter Driver | Driver Details | Dell US
Realtek Memory Card Reader Driver | Driver Details | Dell US
Intel Serial IO Driver | Driver Details | Dell US
Intel Chipset Device Software | Driver Details | Dell US
Intel Integrated Sensor Solution Driver | Driver Details | Dell US
Intel Innovation Platform Framework Driver | Driver Details | Dell US
Realtek Audio Console Application | Driver Details | Dell US
Intel Management Engine Components Installer | Driver Details | Dell US
Just let me know how it goes as these have some things that can help with the audio.
*NOTE: I am NOT a Dell employee, But I am a Community Rockstar*Quick Tip: If your laptop has voltage / charging issues, try shutting it down, unplugging power from laptop, hold power button down for 30 seconds to do a full reset!
I have an X17. Let's compare symptoms. If I boot or start with my wired headset in, it plays fine. If I look at the audio control center, I see the headsets and I see the speakers. If I unplug the headset, it disappears from the audio center and when I plug the headset back in, it never registers. The Troubleshooter says no headset is plugged in. If I reboot with the headset back in, it works again, but only until I unplug it. I have erased and re-installed the drivers and all drivers are up to date.
Does that sound like your issue? Did you ever get it resolved?
