I also opened the Windows playback devices, right-clicked on speakers and went to properties, and under jack information, it lists the back panel jacks (L/R, Rear L/R, Center/Sub, Side L/R), but it doesn't have the front panel headphone jack listed. I did check and make sure that in both the Windows settings and the Realtek Sound Manager settings, I had Stereo selected, as I don't actually have a 5.1/7.1 speaker set up. I tried searching for this problem before coming here and from what I can gather (though the sources don't really seem all that reputable), even if you have HD audio, the front panel headphone and/or microphone jacks will be AC'97? Well, this computer does have HD audio, at least the back panel does anyway. Else I would say it's some faulty frontpannel connectors, but you say that before reinstalling all was fine.
That's indeed something you have to look into when you have AC'97 front audio connections, but I presume that Gateway has HD audio, are you sure that you have selected stereo or 5.1/7.1 right?. I have my Realtek sound manager now, but regardless of whether or not I enable "front panel detection" - when I plug headphones in to the front headphone jack, sound still comes out of the speakers, and nothing comes out of the headphones.

*sigh*Īnyway, I've installed the drivers that you linked from there and I am going to restart now and see what that does.Īnd I still have the same problem. I am looking at the site now and apparently it's redesigned and they have all the drivers. That's weird because, back when I first had this problem (and didn't care to fix it other than the day it happened until now), I went to the Gateway website to try and find the drivers that came with this computer, and for my model, they only had maybe 25% of the drivers for this computer listed for download. I downloaded the drivers you linked to, I see they're from the Gateway website.

However, just before I updated this driver today with the driver I have now, there is an option where you can check "Disable front panel auto detection." Regardless of whether or not I had that checked or unchecked, it wouldn't work right, however if I didn't have front panel detection disabled, I'd randomly have and not have sound in my regular speakers. I know it's a Realtek setting and that the current driver is not a Realtek driver. That's a realtek setting that allow or not sound to come out of the speaker when headphone are connected. >_<Īlso if it helps, I've created a system information file: Edited Jby anathematized1 well, I think I'd have more luck navigating an active minefield than their website. Maybe I am missing something? I tried to find information on the Realtek website but. Odd.Īnyway, I tried updating the drivers and stuff and that didn't help. Also, when I updated to this driver I got today, my Realtek Sound Manager is gone. The funny thing is, before, the driver said "Realtek Semiconductor Corp." or something like that as the author when I was looking at it in device manager, but now it says Microsoft Corporation? And this is the one I downloaded today from Realtek's website. I just today went on their website again and downloaded the drivers they had listed.
It also comes out of the headphones, but it sounds like there's some other signal coming into the headphones with the audio? The problem is, when I plug headphones into the front jack, the sound still comes out of the speakers. Well, I had to reformat a while back and now, the sound works, I have speakers still plugged into the back panel. Upon removing the headphones, playback resumed as normal through the speakers. When I would plug in a set of headphones to the front panel, it automatically muted the sound coming out of the regular speakers and only played through the headphones. So, when I originally bought this computer, I had my two channel speakers plugged into the back panel. Sound Realtek HD Audio (model ? - features 7.1 surround, front panel headphones/mic)
