Using headsets/earphones makes sound muffled

[Escapist_1]

My laptop's audio has been working fine until a few days ago. Now some sounds are either muted, muffled, or distorted. But it's fine when I don't use speakers or headsets. I've tried 2 headsets and 1 pair of earphones. plz help

please kindly name your notebook model and double check if the audio settings have been changed by windows update - as it happened to me with last win 10 update.

I use an Acer Aspire E 14, and how do I check the audio settings
