x15e Realtek HD Audio and Headphones issue

I recently purchased an x15e laptop with the Realtek HD Audio Card and have run into some issues with the use of Headphones. The issue that I have is that when I plug my headphones into the headphone jack audio plays through both speakers and headphones. This is obviously undesirable (in my opinion the purpose of headphones is so that I can be the only one hearing audio so as not to bother those around me).

A google search suggested that I check my device list and make the headphones the default device, however the headphones do not appear in the list, further no matter how I adjust the settings with Realtek audio monitor the only results I can achieve is either no audio or audio through both sources.

I found a temporary fix by using the line in port and making the computer think that the headphones are rear speakers and the front speakers do not exist. This however has caused audio issues in several games.

In summary my goal is to find out how to make audio play through only my headphones in stereo format, is there anyone who may be able to help with this?

I have already consulted digital storm google searches and several forums without success. My driver seems to be up to date, I have tried uninstalling, reinstalling from the digital storm driver disk, then when that did not work I uninstalled and reinstalled again from the link from realtek.com website, again with no success.

Yes I have already tried scull candy, apple and sony headphones both in and out of ear style.

I wonder if it could be an issue with my headphone jack because it doesn't seem to be a common issue, Google search nothing I will contact tech support and post an update if it is repaired for the reference of anyone who may require the info. Please let me know if you have any other suggeStions.

Let me know how it goes, if you still can't figure it out or our team, I can contact Clevo directly. Send me an email: [email protected]
