Yes, they work. Previously, after plugging in the headphones, a window appeared with the selection of small, large, etc. headphones. After confirmation, the sound appeared in the headphones. After unplugging the headphones, the sound automatically appeared in the speakers. Now, when I plug in the headphones, no choice pops up.
On the bar next to the clock, after pressing the up arrow, there should be a Realtek icon, select Realtek Sound Manager and show the window that appeared.
I don't have such an icon. I am enclosing a screen. In the drop-down taskbar at the very bottom there is some icon that is inactive. Maybe that's the problem?
As for the sound icon, when you right-click it, something like the one shown in the attached screen develops. The manager isn't there, or at least I can't see it.
The user reported that their Dell Inspiron 13-5378 laptop no longer detects headphones, which previously triggered an automatic selection window for audio output. Despite the headphones functioning correctly with other devices, the laptop fails to recognize them. Suggestions included checking for the Realtek Sound Manager icon in the taskbar, which the user could not find. Ultimately, the solution involved downloading and installing the appropriate Realtek audio driver from Dell's support site, which resolved the issue. Summary generated by the language model.
