Fault with audio jack, Picks up devices (but incorrectly) but no audio.

[mrbean414]

My PC will no longer play audio and yet will detect devices. It will also say there is a speaker connected when its only an AUX cable. Please help me, it worked fine yesterday.

Its worth noting that i did take out GPU and moved it about and cleaned it and then put i back, could this have broken it? thank you for anybody who can comment and help me out.
