My Headphone Jack Isn't Working

[felixandscrap]

I've had my Toshiba laptop for around two years and everything has functioned correctly the whole time. Up until a few months ago, that is. The speakers work fine and I can connect it to Bluetooth just like normal, but for some reason my jack is acting up. When I use my Bose headphones, sound only comes through in the right earphone and when I use my Apple earbuds, audio only plays through the left earbud. I know for a fact that it is not my headphones/earbuds that are the problem because I have tested them on numerous other devices and they work perfectly every single time. I have seen other people on this site advise people to check their "Playback devices" and then "Show disabled devices", but all that comes up when I do that is "Speakers", sooo.... Help would be much appreciated! Thank you.

Could be a dry joint inside the laptop. If you wriggle the headphone socket, do both left and right speakers work?

No, that doesn't work. It's still in only one side.
