Confused about Headphone Jack.

[Ghosty705]

So, I have a 970 Extreme3 R 2.0 (great mobo btw) but can'tfigure out to plug headphones in. I use a TV as a monitor, and I tried plugging it into that, and the green headphone jack, but still nothing, does anybody who has owned this mobo or used a tv as a monitor (or maybe both) know what to do? Very lost.

I need more information. What gpu are you using, what video output are you using. I recommend just using hdmi as it outputs video and audio. But if you are trying to use headphones only, plug them into the front of the pc (or back) and right click the speaker/volume icon on the tray area of windows. Then select playback devices and tell me what pops up

You must think I'm stupid.

I am using HDMI, who doesn't?

I plugged them into all the jacks, and selected playback, who wouldn't do that?

(sorry if I seemed angry, I get grumpy without my vape pen and it's charging)

I dont think youre stupid, you wouldnt believe how much ive fixed for people where its a simple plugging it in wrong. I just want to make sure. Have you downloaded the latest audio driver? Sometimes that helps, my friend had this issue.

You see, I dont HAVE a sound card, so I don't know if drivers apply to me. My mobo has a sound card built in, and that's what I use. I did put it into a orange jack, and it made a sound, but that's about it.

Never mind, all I had to do was put it in the tv jack and then disable all playback devices. A bit of a weird process, but hey, it works! Thanks for helping zombie!
