Whenever I plug in my headphones on the cases audio jack or on the motherboard audio out jacks the headphones are detected and show as if sound is being received, but nothing can be heard through them. Current set up is - 5600 B450 Tomahawk Max - American Megatrends International, LLC. 3.D0, 01/04/2022 32gb Crucial 3200mhz ram 1660S I've tried a number of things to try and fix this but I'm having no luck. Tried second pair of headphones - Still no sound Checked audio settings and the headphones are not disabled Messed with settings in sound - Spacial sound and enhancements on/off Uninstalled audio drivers and re-installed Updated B450 Chipset to most recent Downloaded most recent audio drivers for motherboard Fresh install of Windows 10 Reseated CPU Replaced CPU with different 5600 When I installed the CPU bios reverted to Legacy and I had to convert it back to UEFI but the problem persisted in both settings. I can only guess that it is a hardware issue with the B450 and the 5600 but not sure why this would be happening or whether it can be fixed Again, the sounds appear to be coming through but just nothing can be heard. Any suggestions would be appreciated and happy to provide more system details if needed.
